message: I noticed that this section is pretty close to the text as it appears on the Library and Archives Canada website's biography for Cartier. I don't know who wrote it but it could almost be plagiarism. I think this section may need a rewrite. Geroge-Etienne Cartier bio. --Atrian 17:29, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

===Early career===  	 
- 	Cartier was born in Saint-Antoine, Quebec (then known as Lower Canada). Cartier was educated at Sulpician College de Montreal and was called to the bar in 1835 where he began to practise his profession. He was also involved in the railway business, and Grand Trunk Railway was one of his legal clients. 	 
			
- 	Early in his career, Cartier was friends with Louis-Joseph Papineau. Through this connection, Cartier became a member of the Société des Fils de la Liberté (“Sons of Liberty”) and took part in the Lower Canada Rebellion of 1837 (also called the “Papineau-MacKenzie” or “Pap-Mac” Rebellion). For his part in the uprising, Cartier was exiled and he took temporary refuge in Vermont. However, he was allowed to return to Montreal in 1838 to resume his law practice.

message: After an intensive search, I could not find any proof what so ever that he was made a Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George (KCMG), besides maybe some websites which seems to be all a copy of the Wikipedia site, or those referring just to Wikipedia as a source. Also on the official London Gazette I couldn't find anything, which publishes official statements about persons who are given an honour. On other hand, there is proof he was ever made a Baronet (with the Sir distinction). I have removed the text about the knighthood; to my knowledge it was an invented edit without historical proof.
