 Voting Age Canada
Although these revolts did not immediately result in greater autonomy, they were at least partly responsible for the subsequent refusal of the elected colonial assemblies to ratify legislation proposed by governors and their councils.
Perhaps the most clear cut case of paternalism was the exclusion from the franchise of women in Lower Canada in 1834 under the pretext, supported by the deaths of three people in the election two years previously, that polling stations had become too dangerous for women.
While one might be quite competent to participate in a democracy despite lacking the skills for military service, I would argue, one could not be a truly competent member of the armed forces of a democratic nation without possessing a democratic mind set.

 History of Constables and Policing in Pioneer York Toronto
[10] The 1830 reduction in Toronto’s constabulary might have something to do with the rescinding that year of a daily honorarium of two shillings and six pence given to the men, which had no doubt previously softened the bite of constabulary conscription.

 1830: Railroads & Robber Barons for DOS - MobyGames
Based on Avalon Hill's board game of the same name, 1830 is a railroad empire building game that is along the same lines (although a different style of gameplay) as the much more famous RailRoad Tycoon.
Capturing the very look and feel of the board game, all the way to the hexagonal playing field and track tokens, 1830 is a turn based game that emphasizes the successful running of a company and manipulating the stock market rather than managing a railroad.
Tracks can be laid, cities connected, trains purchased, and schedules set, but the ultimate goal in the end is making money, even at the cost of your company; you'll wind up buying and selling a number of them during the course of the game anyway.
