Baldwin, Robert, 1951-
Robert Baldwin
Robert Baldwin
(May 12, 1804 – December 9, 1858) was an
Upper Canadian
lawyer and politician who with his political partner
Louis-Hippolyte Lafontaine
of
Lower Canada
, led the first
responsible government
ministry in the
Province of Canada
. "Responsible Government" marked the province's democratic self-government, without a revolution, although not without violence. This achievement also included the introduction of
municipal government
, the introduction of a modern legal system, reforms to the
jury system
in Upper Canada, and the abolition of
imprisonment for debt
. Baldwin is also noted for feuding with the
Orange Order
and other fraternal societies. The Lafontaine-Baldwin government enacted the
Rebellion Losses Bill
to compensate Lower Canadians for damages suffered during the
Lower Canada Rebellion
of 1837–1838. The passage of the Bill outraged Anglo-Canadian Tories in Montreal, resulting in the
burning of the Parliament Buildings in Montreal
in 1849.
