		Haldimand later commented that his native land was no place for someone with ambition, and this belief may have persuaded him to look for a career with a foreign army, a course of action very popular in his homeland.
		Haldimand, on his own admission “much embarrassed” by the question, endeavoured to reassure the chief of the king’s continued protection by suggesting that the area around Cataraqui and westwards along the north shore of Lake Ontario be examined by Surveyor General Samuel Johannes Holland.
		Haldimand was delighted to reach an agreement and undertook to acquire the territory in question; he also promised he would recommend to the king that they be compensated for their losses.

		Both men appealed to Haldimand, but the general refused to do anything to antagonize either his most trusted chief or his most capable Indian agent.28 Brant’s constant striving to extend his influence with the Mohawks began to alienate the very friends that had assisted his rise to power.
		In deliberating with Haldimand, Brant sought to convince the general that the Mohawks were at least as deserving of reward as other kinds of loyalists.
		Haldimand responded readily to Brant’s appeals because he had always believed that the British-Iroquois alliance was, at heart, an elaborate patron-client relationship.

		Haldimand, however, viewed the appointments as prerogatives of the Commander-in-Chief, and numerous letters were exchanged on this subject before an appointment would be confirmed.
		Haldimand was not happy with the expenses of the Corps and had occasion to comment on the Pay Bills and confusion of allowances for the Rangers.
		Haldimand's concern regarding the cost of the Rangers to the Treasury, is reflected in the following abstract prepared in November 1784 by the Paymaster General at the end of the war.

	DOE EX DEM. JACKSON V . WILKES
		The seal at arms of Governor Haldimand is no seal of the King, and it is not shewn that in point of fact it was ever pretended in any other case to dispose of crown lands by an instrument under the seal at arms of the Governor of Quebec.
		Again, this instrument does not pro- fess in its terms to be a lease for years or for life; but if it be meant to convey any legal estate, it clearly was not intended to limit such estate to the life of the grantee.
		The most that can be made of the instrument issued by Governor Haldimand is this, in my opinion--it may be considered as a declaration by the King's Governor, and in the King's name, that certain lands of the crown were held by the King for the exclusive use and enjoyment of the Six Nations.

		Haldimand agreed with Twiss’s proposal for a post on Carleton Island, but as soon as the proposed works were well launched Twiss was to leave for Montreal and Glenie would “oversee and carry on that Business in your absence.”
		To the double embarrassment of Haldimand, Glenie’s services were still badly needed and in the fall word arrived that Glenie had been transferred to the corps of engineers (his commission as a second lieutenant was dated 23 Feb. 1779) and Lord Townshend wanted him sent home to England.
		Because of a variety of problems, there was a long delay before Glenie was brought to trial, and Haldimand felt that until this judicial question was resolved it would be “highly improper” to allow him to return home.

		To Carleton was entrusted the duty at the close of the war of transporting stores belonging to the Crown, baggage, artillery and the royalist troops, and the manner in which, in the interests of the loyalists, he carried out his task, has always been held to be worthy of great praise from his fellow countrymen.
		It had been held that some hesitation was felt in coming to Canada from the belief that the government of the country was of a purely military character, but when its true nature was realised, many came to settle under the British flag as they ardently desired to do.
		The idea of Governor Haldimand was that these troops would usefully serve to settle the country from the shores of Lake Francis.

		Governor Frederick Haldimand believed that present-day Quebec was the rightful patrimony of French Canadians, which should be reserved for their future settlement.
		Haldimand intended to forcibly remove Loyalists resident in the Missisquoi Bay area, but, after his return to England in 1784, they were permitted to stay by Lt. Col.
		The administration had no control over Loyalists not receiving land grants or subsidies from the government, however; and there resulted a modest diffusion of the more affluent families throughout the province.

		Facing a reprimand from the hierarchy, Grass apologized and said that he did not “presume to take the claim as founder himself but only meant that he was the first of the Loyalists who before they left New York, pointed out that [Cataraqui] was the most desirable place to go.”
		Previous settlements of colonial officials, soldiers and Indian agents at Niagara and Detroit were regarded as strategic bases rather than permanent communities, and Haldimand’s decision to throw open the frontier was the spark that transformed the wilderness peninsula north of Lakes Ontario and Erie.
		It would be easy to assume that the settlement of Loyalists into Upper Canada was merely part of the natural westward movement of peoples inland from earlier Euro-American colonies.
