YouTube Description
as posted by the channelJohn Robson clears up some common myths about William Lyon Mackenzie.
He was more than just the rabble-rouser whose printing press was thrown into Lake Ontario.
In the first place, "he was obnoxious." WLM's critics had a point when they complained of "the dubious accuracy of some of his claims."
WLM actually once "drafted a "terribly American sounding" constitution that included the right to bear arms.
He loved America so much that he moved there briefly, but later decided he hated it there, too.
The elites tell us that conservatism is unCanadian but a closer look at WLM shows that this isn't the case.
