Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Catholic Church in Western Canada, Vol. 2: From Lake Superior to the Pacific (1659-1895) It is not Without misgivings that the historian of the Catholic Church in Western Canada comes upon the years 1869-70. Everyone knows the trite saying that history is a conspiracy against truth. We doubt if there is a period in the whole past of man in America to which that remark can be more appro priately applied. Hence, in order to reproduce the events of those troubled times with the complexion that is really theirs, we must run counter to the fables and fabrication, the groundless surmises and misrepresentations which racial and religious preju dices have so far given as the expression of truth in nearly all English works.
