Book Description
Excerpt from The Red River Rebellion: Eight Letters to Eight Joseph Howe, in Reply to an Official Pamphlet Finding that the verdict of public opinion was clearly against you, and that your colleagues were involved in the same condemnation, you have appealed from that verdict, and now move in arrest of judgment on the ground that "false impressions" have been made upon the "public mind," "chiefly by the Hon. Wm. McDougall," that he is, in fact, the one man who is "censurable," whose "conduct was wholly indefensible," whose "policy" "would have deprived Canada of Imperial countenance and support;" while "Mr. Howe must be completely exonerated from all blame," the Manitoba Act, admitted to be "generally acceptable to the people of the North west," and the Canadian Government lauded for its "singular judgment, decision, and conciliation," in the whole matter! This is certainly a novel, as well as a bold proceeding, and must, I think, have been resorted to in the absence of the legal adviser of the Government. "A motion in arrest of judgment," we are told, "must be grounded on some objection arising on the face of the record itself." The defendant cannot, at this stage re-argue his case, or adduce the "opinions" of third parties as evidence in the cause, or attempt to change places with the plaintiff. Judgment non obstante veredicto is the exclusive privilege of the latter. Even in the high Court of public opinion, some regard must be paid to those rules of logic and procedure which judicial experience has found to be indispensible in the administration of justice. You admit that the verdict on the pleadings, and on the evidence submitted, is against the Government; you have not shown any mistake or defect in the indictment; you have not brought forward anything that can be regarded as new, or additional evidence - admitting that, in such a case as this, you might be permitted to produce it if you could. The judgment must, therefore, I respectfully submit, be entered against - you as it has been already in the mind of every man in Canada who is not a sympathizer with rebels and "banditti." But, pursuing the legal analogy a step further, perhaps your motion is for a new trial? Be it so; I do not object. Nay, I am under obligations to you for the opportunity thus afforded me, to produce important evidence hitherto withheld from motives of prudence, even under the strongest provocation to make it public.
