	John George Lambton, 1st earl of Durham - LoveToKnow 1911

	Earl of Durham - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The title of Earl of Durham was created in the Peerage of the United Kingdom in 1833 for John Lambton, 1st Baron Durham, a prominent Whig politician and author of the famous Report on the Affairs of British North America known in Canada as the Durham Report.
		The Earls of Durham hold the subsidiary titles Viscount Lambton (1833) and Baron Durham, of the City of Durham and of Lambton Castle in the County Palatine of Durham (1828), both in the Peerage of the UK.
		The heir apparent usually uses the courtesy title Viscount Lambton, but the heir to the disclaimed 6th Earl uses the title Lord Durham to avoid confusion with his father, who continues improperly to style himself Viscount Lambton.

		His investigation led to the publication, in 1839, of the famous Durham Report in which he recommended that Upper and Lower Canada be united, that responsible government be granted (see text below), that French Canadians be assimilated and that municipal institutions be established in Canada.
		Durham was hailed as a statesman by Reformers in Upper Canada for recommending the granting of responsible government and as a racist in Lower Canada for proposing the assimilation of French Canadians.
		But the Crown must, on the other hand, submit to the necessary consequences of representative institutions; and if it has to carry on the government in unison with a representative body, it must consent to carry it on by means of those in whom that representative body has confidence”.
