==Why Quebec did not secede== 
 This unexplained edit implies that Quebec remained within the Empire due to "a strong military government at that time with a garrison of 800 British regulars overseeing an isolated population of 90,000."  It also ignores the 150,000 aboriginal inhabitants and implies that the regulars were concentrated in a garrison, when in fact they were thinly spread.  The editor has explained his views of reluctance of French Canadians to join the revolution, but I do not see anyone agreeing with him and will therefore reverse.  Please do not re-add without discussion.
