Canada as you’ve never seen it: a captivating story, told by people who lived it. Drawing its source from the rich oral tradition of the natives as well as from the writings of witnesses of the time, the series brings their personal testimonies to life.
Before the arrival of the railway, Canada was a huge, rugged territory with only a low density of widely dispersed population. As railways between the Atlantic and the Pacific were built, cities began to flourish. Stations become centers of activity and communication. Jobs are being created, businesses are multiplying and, for the first time, Canadians feel united. The creation of the Dominion of Canada in 1867 was possible, in large part, thanks to the railway.
On June 18, 1812, the Americans declared war on Great Britain and attacked the nearest target, Canada. Although there was only one Canadian volunteer for every ten Americans during the War of 1812, the latter managed to defend their homes and villages against trained American armies. Why are the men and women who saved Canada called “defenders”? Where did the battles take place? What weapons were used?
The American Revolution from 1775 to 1783 was above all a war of clans where neighbors and families clashed with each other. At the end of the conflict, more than 70,000 former inhabitants of the 13 colonies left or lost their homes by fleeing north to Canada. They are the loyalists. They too claim democracy and independence, but by a peaceful evolution and while remaining faithful to Great Britain. Loyalists will transform the wilderness of Canada and shape the future personality of the Canadian people, putting all their faith in law, order and loyalty.
Although Canada’s citizens are usually thought of as law-abiding and loyal to authority, there have been some notable and powerful rebels. From fiery spirits such as William Lyon Mackenzie and Louis-Joseph Papineau in 1837, to men and women who simply defied social convention, Canada’s rebels have had a strong impact on its growth as a nation.

Lyrics in French (Canadian dialect):
Quand on part des chanquiers
Mes chers amis tous le coeur gai
Pour aller voir tous nos parents
Mes chers amis le coeur content.
Envoyons d’l’avant nos gens
Envoyons d’l’avant!
Mais qu’nos amis nous voyent arriver
Y vont s’mettr’ à rire, à chanter.
Dimanche au soir à la veillée
Nous irons voir nos compagnées.
Dimanche au soir à la veillée
Nous irons voir nos compagnées.
Elles vont nous dire mais en entrant
V’là mon amant, j’ai l’coeur content!
Elles vont nous dire mais en entrant
V’là mon amant, j’ai l’coeur content!
Et au milieu de la veillée
Elles vont nous parler d’leus cavaliers.
Et au milieu de la veillée
Elles vont nous parler d’leurs cavaliers.
Elles vont nous dire mais en partant
As-tu fréquenté des amants?
Elles vont nous dire mais en partant
As-tu fréquenté des amants?
Qui a composé la chanson?
C’est Jos Blanchet le joli garçon!
English translation:
When we leave the chanquiers (woodworking locations)
My dear friends, all with hearts gay,
To see all our friends and family,
My dear friends, all with hearts gay,
Let’s go boys, let’s go!
Let’s go boys, let’s go!
When our friends will see us arrive,
They start laughing and singing,
Sunday night at the vigil,
We’ll go see our partners,
Sunday night at the vigil,
We’ll go see our partners,
They’ll tell us as we enter,
Here’s my lover, my heart is happy,
They’ll tell us as we enter,
Here’s my lover, my heart is happy,
And at the middle of the vigil,
They’ll tell us of their lovers,
And at the middle of the vigil,
They’ll tell us of their lovers,
And they’ll ask us as we leave,
Did you go see any mistresses?
And they’ll ask us as we leave,
Did you go see any mistresses?
Who wrote the song?
It was Jo Blanchet, the pretty boy
