Allow me to digress: On the mergence of an uprising, invasion, rebellion, raid, or war, Canada’s Militia Battalions, Regiments were funded, raised in large numbers by the governing body, overwhelmingly praised for their courage by the masses in one then both Provinces and later in the Dominion of Canada. Once the conflict diminished, ignored while discarded as waste of public monetary funs, an absurdity of ridicule, a Joke voiced by news papers, provincial, city officials, parliament and Canada’s Government. By amending, tabling new bills for reading and passing new Acts, hastily disbanded the old regiments, militia battalions, Coy’s, in order to release strain on the Government coffers, created a smaller paid and volunteer militia force in 1855, of 5000 all ranks. The Government’s shallow pockets, knowing public privet interest, donations would materialize, in 1856 created an unpaid volunteer militia of 10,000 Rank and file. Taking into consideration officers paid for their commissions, an amount set on rank. A Governmental status quo, perpetuated with Canada’s militia since pre war 1812 or post “Trent Affair.” Historical accounts are clear, public monetary donations consisted largely in maintaining the militias more then Government’s contribution. Financial support from individuals of high stature, Officers, merchants, bank, companies, the upper and bas Canada, “Chieftains” or “The Clique” “Chateau Clique.” The Québec Government and Militia have always marched to the beat of their own drum, functioning independently from the rest of Canada when it suited her needs even in 2014. However the militia act or amendments authorised by Upper Canada weren’t completely upheld by Bas Canada owing to documents, Militia registries I uncovered in Québec, Montréal archives, historical accounts, privet collections. Though the act of 1855-56 till 59 raised independent Coy’s, with the exception of the Montreal Light Infantry, the first duly authorised Battalion in the 1856 Act. Both Bas-Canada cities, with surrounding rural areas authorised by GO Sedentary Militia battalions, regiments from 1840-1862, registries published by Lt.-Col. A. de Salaberry, Deputy Adjutant-General of the Militia Office of Lower Canada.
The Governor in June 1759 divided Nouvelle France into three districts: Ville de Québec, Trois-Rivières et Montréal according to historical recycled accounts, who was this Governor?
“In 1759 Monckton, who had succeeded to the command of the British forces at Québec, was ordered south for his health, and, before leaving, appointed Murray, the next senior brigadier, military governor of Québec, with Burton as lieutenant-governor, until the king’s pleasure should be known. Murray had already been acting as governor of Québec for nearly a year, when, after the capitulation of Montreal, Amherst, the British commander-in-chief in North America, issued a placard setting up two new districts, Three Rivers and Montreal, and appointing as governors in them respectively Burton and Gage. The net result of this action was to divide Canada, for the purposes of military government, into three districts corresponding to the judicial districts under French rule. But the difference in date and source of the appointments of Murray, on the one hand, and Burton and Gage, on the other, was reflected in the type of military rule set up in their several districts. Murray, who had already made his arrangements for the government of the district of Quebec, was not bound by the terms of Amherst’s instructions to Burton and Gage; and consequently the military government of Quebec differed radically from that of Three Rivers and Montreal. Just 15 minutes after the battle on the Plains of Abraham had begun, the French line had crumbled. Even though the French vastly outnumbered the British, the Governor, the Marquis de Vaudreuil, decided they would not fight again the next day. Uncoordinated French troops start shooting at their enemy on the Plains of Abraham. They are quickly defeated, and retreat within 15 minutes, after the British fire across a line a mile wide, with the power of double-loaded muskets, followed by a full British bayonet advance. The battle lasted no more than 15 minutes. From the television series After the conquest, a new Canada slowly took shape. The Canadian militia returned to their villages and farms. 500 French soldiers, married to Canadian women, were allowed to stay. 3000 British troops remained in Québec. Bigot was put in the Bastille for corruption, and died in exile in 1778. Governor Vaudreuil was arrested for his role in the colony’s loss. General James Wolfe became a virtual industry in death, as biographies, ballads, epic poems, and paintings of him abounded.
La Milice du District de Montréal, carried a reputation of an efficient unit, composing of fur traders, that were Voyageurs. This Militia was trained mostly for ambush tactics in the woods, or “Hit & Run” an old Huron, Algonkin, Mohawk warrior tactic, earning them the nickname “Wolves” by other militia districts. In 1759, 5,455 militiamen were mobilized,
