On September :. 1915. "L'Action
Sociale.' Of Quebec, supposed to be
the organ OF the Cdrdu'l-Archhishop,
published an article declaring that "tnc

Loyalty of
Archbishop

In Montreal. during these years,
Archbishop Bruchesi maintained a well
known attitude Of pronounced loyalty.
Speaking at Laval, on January !, he
declared that Canada being a part OF
the British Empire, ii is the sacred
duty Of the Canadian people 20 assist
Great Britain in her heroic defence Of
liberty. This was the position taken
by the cniscopacy ot French Canada at
the outbreak of the war, and this IS
the attitude bishops still maintain and
will continue 90 maintain TO the very
end. The obligations we owe the Brit
ish crown arc sacred obligations II
is the solemn duty &C every Canadian
citizen. to the utmost limit Of his force,
to stand side by side with the mother
land in her heroic effort 90 crush the
tyrant who wishes 20 trample small
nations and states beneath his iron
heel"
Such have been the issues and such
the general situation in Quebec during
the war. The inertia o. the French
Canadian WIS largely o natural cond'
ton. and while the resentment aroused
in some parts Of Canada was equally
natural, il was hardly deserved by the
masses Of the people.
They lacked tho Englishman's knowl-
edge of what the war meant; they
lacked the English Canadians instinct
of duty. which. however, was sometimes
dormant; they lacked the touch which
English Canada still kept upon British
affairs. politics and conditions; they
lacked education as children in the
things which would create an empire
patriotism, though not more so than the
English population of some parts Of
Canada.
Before me as I write is a copy Of
ROYAL Reader No. :. used In the public
schools in Montreal in which there IS
not one story or poem Of British pa
triotism, while there are number Gu
logizinC German morarchs and German
character. At the same time they had
their own local patriotism, loyalty to
their own institutions and Church and
language and ideals.
The inertia may be regrettable; IL did
not. and does not. deserve the slashing
censure which some Ontario and West
EN- critics administered. though Do must
be added that such criticisms were d.
rected more at the utterances Of O part
Of the French Canadian press. or the
sedition preached By certain National
lists. than against the people az whole.
