I think the "founding fathers" would be surprised that black men, and women of any color have the right to vote (women only got the vote in the early 1900s, by the way!). I really, really wish people would stop viewing health care as a commodity and profit-making BUSINESS. There is nothing communist or socialist about guaranteeing all your citizens good, affordable, available, comprehensive health care. No one -- NO one -- should be forced to suffer or die because they cannot afford the necessary treatment. No one should have to sell the family home or go bankrupt to cover medical costs. Canada, France, Belgium, The United Kingdom -- most of western Europe, in fact -- all provide forms of universal health care which, while not perfect (what is?) are far, far better (and a lot less expensive) than what currently must be privately purchased in the U.S. And, the last time I looked, education WAS a state issue.

Fathers Of Confederation

Your question is strangely worded. Do you mean the men who first colonized it and started settling the land? Or do you mean the men who organized the French Quebec and Acadia and the English Ontario, PEI, Nova Scotia? Or do you mean the men who created the confederation in the mid-1800s that unified the country more than 100 years after the British took control of all of the colonies?

BTW, the guy above left out Louis Riel who represented the Metis.

The "founding fathers of Canada" are called the "Fathers of Confederation."

The term Fathers of Confederation usually refers to the representatives of the British North America colonies who attended one or more of three major Canadian confederation conferences - the Charlottetown Conference in 1864, the Quebec Conference in 1864 and the London Conference in 1866. Canada in this context refers to what are now the provinces of Ontario and Quebec (Upper Canada and Lower Canada. )

Kind of a sexist question, isn't it?
You mean to tell me that no women were involved in the creation of the Canadian nation?
