What do the Proclamation of 1763 and Quebec Act or 1774 have in common?
Asked by Wiki User
The Quebec Act of 1774 was an act of the Parliament of Great Britain (citation 14 Geo. III c. 83) setting procedures of governance in the Province of Quebec. The principal components of the act were:
- The province's territory was expanded to take over part of the Indian Reserve, including much of what is now southern Ontario, Illinois, Indiana,Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, and parts of Minnesota.
- The oath of allegiance was replaced with one that no longer made reference to the Protestantfaith.
- It guaranteed free practice of the Catholicfaith.
- It restored the use of the French civil law for private matters, except that in accordance with the English common law, it granted unlimited testamentary freedom. It maintained English common lawfor public administration, including criminal prosecution.
- It restored the Catholic church's right to impose tithes.
The act had wide-ranging effects, in Quebec itself, as well as in the Thirteen Colonies. In Quebec, English-speaking immigrants from Britain and the southern colonies objected to a variety of its provisions, which they saw as a removal of certain political freedoms. Canadiensvaried in their reaction; the land-owning seigneurs and clergy were generally happy with its provisions although the populace resented their loss of liberties.
In the Thirteen Colonies, the act, which had been passed in the same session of Parliament as a number of other acts designed as punishment for the Boston Tea Party and other protests, was passed along with the other Intolerable Acts also known as the Coercive Acts. The provisions of the Quebec Act were seen by the colonists as a new model for British colonial administration, which would strip the colonies of their elected assemblies, and promote the Roman Catholic faith in preference to widely-held Protestant beliefs. It also limited opportunities for colonies to expand on their western frontiers, by granting most of the Ohio Country to the province of Quebec.

What are the Quebec laws of repossessing a vehicle?
Asked by Wiki User
To redeem collateral, the creditor sends a letter authorizing an employee or person to repossess the vehicle. The VIN number, as well as any amount owed, must be displayed on the document. This way, if the client wants to pay the money owed he/she can do so. At that time, after paying all monies owed, the secured party can not repossess the vehicle, and the payment agreement continues for the duration.
If the money owed is not paid, after the vehicle has been seized, the police are notified that the vehicle has been repossessed. This way, if the person who owned the car phones the police, the police can let them know that the car was repossessed. The vehicle is stored for 30 days to give a chance for the client to pay off the amounts owed. If not paid, the vehicle is sold. The creditor has to try to get full market value. If the vehicle is sold for less than the money owed, the client is on the hook. If sold for more than the material value, then the client receives any residual money left over after ALL creditors have been paid.
