In honour of Canada Day (July 1), here's a message from Canada's first Prime Minister.
"Whatever you do, adhere to the Union. We are a great country, and shall become one of the greatest in the universe if we preserve it; we shall sink into insignificance and adversity if we suffer it to be broken."
Sir John A. Macdonald (1815-1891)
from an 1861 speech, quoted in E.B. Biggar, Anecdotal life (1891)
