 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Georges-Etienne Cartier   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-07-12)
Under the Union of the two Canadas (1841-67) he was four times Attorney-General of Lower Canada: in 1856, in 1857, with the leadership of his province; in 1858 as Premier of Canada, and in 1864.
To avert legislative union, detrimental to the nationality and faith of the French Canadians, Cartier concurred in effecting — as a remedy — the Confederation of Upper and Lower Canada (Ontario and Quebec) with the Maritime Provinces (Nova Scotia and New Brunswick).
A man of indomitable energy, equally loyal to the catholic Faith, to his French-Canadian origin, and to the British Crown, he directed his fellow-countrymen in the path of progress and prosperity, assuring to them the advantages of responsible government and a large share of influence in the councils of the nation.

Granted, Canada is a huge country and the border isn't hard to cross compared to other places, but it's more enjoyable to have an easy time with the whole process.
