Book Description
Excerpt from Canadian Citizenship a Treatise on Civil Government The design of the author in the preparation of this work is to give young people a general outline of the Canadian system of government, and to urge the importance of that moral and intellectual training which forms the basis of good citizenship. To persons who live under democratic institutions, an intelligent acquaintance with the manner in which they are governed is obviously essential. Political development is impossible unless the principles of civil government are understood. In England the educational progress of the last thirty years, together with the liberal extension of the franchise, has led to the circulation of several books of a popular character, dealing with the rights and duties of citizens In France, where national education has, perhaps, received more attention within the last fifteen years than in any other country of Europe, l'instruction civique is one of the most popular branches of study.
