WAR WITH CANADA.
THE WORKING MEN'S ASSOCIATION
to the PEOPLE of the UNITED KINGDOM.
FELLOW Co U NTIL VMEN,—Justice to yourselves and posterity
demands your serious attention to the warfare now waging in Ca-
na:la—to the circumstances that have originated that war—and
how far it is your duty to prevent it.
In the first place, money will be wanted and loans will be made,
either directly or indirectly, to support the war. Ministers will
either demand a direct tax, or they will issue Exchequer Bills to
serve their purpose for the time; eventually they will fund these
bills; and thus they will add to the National Debt.
In the second place, the annual surplus of the nation, which now
goes to promote employment for the people, will be mischievously
and unproductively wasted on soldiers and gunpowder.
Thirdly—There will be stoppages and embarrassments in trade
and commerce ; many will be discharged from employment, who,
finding themselves brought to the verge of starvation, will become
soldiers and sailors, and be compelled to perform deeds of blood
posterity will blush to think of.
Fourthly—All those social and political improvements good men
are so desirous to promote, will be retarded—bad men will be pro-
mosed—hase feelings generated—taxation increased—and the base
factions will again revel in blood and plunder.
Fifthly—The war with Canada may lead to hostilities with
America, and consequently to the further depression of trade ; and
the despots of the Continent, jealous of republican America and
English Liberals, would gladly seize the opportunity of a war with
England for extending their despotism and destroying the liberties
of the world.
These very great and very probable evils should awaken you to
exertion in time. lest you pay too dear for preserving a distant co-
lony, kept merely as a nursery for placemen and pensioners, where
Whig and Tory despots have plundered and oppressed the people
with impunity.
Before we describe the complaints of the Canadians, by which
you may judge who are the aggrieved parties, it may be necessary
briefly to inform you that in 1791 a Constitutional °Act was given
to the Canadians by William Pitt, bearing some resemblance to our
boasted Constitution of King, Lords and Commons.
As the representative of the King they have an Executive
Council, composed of Government officers for the most part, and
responsible only to the Colonial-office, by whom they areappointed.
Instead of a House of Lords they have a Legislative Council,
chosen for life by our Colonial-office, also composed of Government
officers, their clerks, and dependents, and responsible only to the
Colonial-office.
In place of a House of Commons, they have a House of Assem-
bly, chosen by the people, with the Suffrage nearly universal, and
though every corrupt means has been resorted to by the offi,ial
party, this House fairly represents the people of Canada. The
House of Assembly, like our House of Commons, boasts of hold-
ing the purse-strings of the nation, and possesses the power of
withholding the supplies, which they have thought proper to do to
procure a redress of grievances—as our House of Commons has
sometimes threatened to do, and effected their object by their
threats.
The Canadians complain that nearly every beneficial law which
has been passed in the People's House, has been factiously opposed
by the Legislative Council ; and that, therefore, no progress has
been made in improving the condition of their country.
• They complain that all the waste land of the Colony, and all the
saleable timber thereon, are disposed of for the advantage of hungry
officials, and for corrupting the representation of the people, in-
stead of being applied to the improvement of their country.
They complain that their Judges are not responsible to the
people, nor can they be impeached for misconduct as English
Judges can by. the People's House, and that by this irresponsibility
flee source of justice is poisoned, and cases of the grossest peculation
and delinquency have passed unpunished.
They complain thet the whole administration of government is
one of favouritism and injustice—that the revenues of their country
are employed and squandered away by persons not responsible to
the people—that they are unable to get an accurate statement of
receipts and expenditure, and, when delinquency is detected, are re-
fused the power to punish or prevent it in future.
Thee complain that their College has been converted into sol-
diers' Barracks, and that the land attached to it has been divided
between the officials of government.

And now, after bearing with these insults and oppressions for
nearly half a century—after every effort to improve their country
by wise and salutary laws has been frustrated by these united aris-
tocratic powers, and after repeated applications and Petitions to
England for redress, they have almost unanimously declared that
they have no hope of wise laws and just government until the Le-
gislative Council is ELECTED ET THE Paort.x.
This reasonable request having been scorned and scouted by
those in power, their House of Assembly has STOPPED THE SUP-
PLIES—that is, they have exercised their only constitutional power
to obtain redress.
What, under these circumstances, has been the conduct of our
" 114;roam" Ministry ? They have resolved to take the people's
money without the consent of the House of Assembly, and to ray
the salaries of these official despots in spite of the Canadian people.
And because the representatives of the people, true to their duty,
suet and protested against such base proposals, the official party
issued out proclamations against such meetings. This further ag-
gression on the people's rights was treated with universal and de-
served contempt ; and then it was that the offlcial party seized and
imprisoned the patriotic representatives of the people. Under such
circumstances the Canadians ijew to arms ; and you have heard,
through a bribed and hireling press, that the Government is deter-
mined to enforce submission to their tyranny.
Englishmen! make the case your own. How would you feel
under similar injustice? Suppose, when your Reform Bill was re-
jected by ft-- Lords, that your House of Commons had thought fit
to withh dth supplies, what would vou think of the Government
party appopri the revenue without their consent? Nay,
further, wi.eu jou held your public meetings to protest against the
injustice, how would you like to be met with Proclamation Law,
and to have your representatives arrested as traitors to their
country? Nay, worse :Ail], if we may believe the published ac-
counts, to have 1,0001. offered for the heads of the chief defenders
of the people's rights, and thus to have them condemned-end
sacrificed without trial by jury, or even the judicial mockery of a
court-martial!

Shall these proceedings be sanctioned by Englishmen, and that,
too, in a Christian country?
If you approve of them you will be silent, and allow all the base
and brut4l consequences to follow. If, on the contrary, you possess
the least spark of humanity and justice within you, you will rise
like one man,- and protest against and Oppose this daring outrage
on the just rights and liberties of the Canadians.
We remain, your fellow citizens,
