This is the text of a speech delivered in the Legislative Assembly on March 25th, 1890, by the Hon. C.F. Fraser, Commissioner of Public Works. The speech addresses the contentious issue of separate schools in Canada and the political position of Roman Catholic electors in relation to the two major political parties of the time. Fraser's address provides valuable insight into the historical debates surrounding religious education and the role of Catholics in Canadian politics during the late 19th century.
The document offers a firsthand account of the arguments and perspectives that shaped educational policy and political alliances in Canada. It remains relevant for understanding the complex interplay of religion, politics, and education in a historical context.
