		Duvernay had been warned that his arrest was imminent and had fled by the time the bailiffs made their appearance at the printing house of La Minerve.

		The Patriots, led by Louis-Joseph Papineau, opposed the British colonialists and had been calling for an American-style democracy.

		The Patriots, after several years of agitation for an elective Legislative Assembly and increased local powers, in 1834 addressed London directly with their 92 Resolutions, the key points of which seem fairly modest: the elected Assembly and control of the budget.

		One example is L'Argus; journal électorique, begun by Ludger Duvernay in Trois-Rivières in August 1826 and moved by him to Montréal four months later, continuing through mid-March 1828.
