And the complaint that the Emancipation Proclamation did not free slaves in Union territory is very misleading. The whole point is that the President had NO constitutional authority to simply declare slaves free because he wanted to! The basis for the Proclamation was his WAR powers -- the right to deprive those in rebellion of property and other means of supporting that rebellion.

∙ 13y agoThere was no slavery in Canada, this was only in in the USA and the Caribbean.
Actually slavery existed in New France and British North America only ending with the British abolition of slave trade in 1807and of slavery in 1833. While there were far fewer slaves in the Canadian colonies they still numbered up to 5000. the majority were Native American.
