LOYAL (LOWER CANADA)


The 'Loyals' were opponents of the Patriotes during the Lower Canada Rebellion in 1837 and 1838.
Loyal volunteers, such as those recruited from the Doric Club, were instrumental in quelling the uprising. They are often called "Loyalists" today, as the Loyalists of the American Revolution (and those who, after the Revolution, immigrated to British North America, called the United Empire Loyalists), but they were called ''"Loyaux"'', or "Loyals", at the time.
