520 $a"People did call him a ₃frightful old rascal,₄ a drunk, a liar and a scheming thief. But then, these same people also consider him to be ₃the father and founder of Canada.₄ To this day, Sir John A. Macdonald is still the only Canadian Prime Minister to throw up in the House of Commons, resign for dishonourable behaviour, personally take up arms against invading Americans, then defend some of them in court! And that is only a very small sample of the outrageous acts for which he is famous! Sir John did not care whether people liked him or thought him a fool, what he cared most about was that his dear Canada was taking shape and growing by leaps and bounds."--Publisher's description (www.jackfruitpress.com)
