Could the Rebellions of 1837 in Upper and Lower (Quebec) Canada have successfully triggered widespread uprisings for democratic reform in British North America? And if so, what might the effect of these uprisings being successful have looked like? If successful would merely reform be pushed for or the formation of an independent state (or two independent states), separate from the British crown altogether? Could one (perhaps the more organized Lower Canadian rebellion?) have succeeded and the other failed?
