Canada (Maple Uprising)

History
Following the rejection of the 92 Resolutions by the british authorities, the elected representatives of Lower-Canada declared the province to be an independent republic.

Following 3 years of conflicts, the provinces of Lower and Upper Canada briefly formed a loosely united republic before later province chose annexion to the USA. Lower Canada prefered to remain independent and formed the Republic of Canada.

System of Government
Both the Legislative Council (Government) and Chamber of Assembly (representatives) are elected through universal suffrage. The chamber, among other things, control the revenue allowed to be spent by the Council. Those elected to the Council cannot at the same time cumulate public roles or conflicting career.

The Council cannot intervene publicly in the election of the Chamber and vice versa. This mean that although there are de facto alliance between parties de jure, council and chamber's parties are separated entities.

Legal System
The legal system of the republic is based mainly on the british one while retaining certain aspect of french customary law.
