The Lower Canada rebellion was connected to two main themes: 1) the subordination of French Canada and its institutions to the ruling British regime; 2) the resurgence of French Canadian nationalism. French Canadians had secured control of the Lower Canada assembly, led by the emerging middle class, but encountered resistance to attempts to assert regional autonomy from the colonial British authorities. During the 1830s, economic recession and mass Immigration caused severe suffering in Lower Canada and threatened their cultural majorities in Montreal and Quebec City. In response to these problems, the Patriotes, an organised French Canadian party, pushed for major reforms. They cut funding to local governments and civil service, preventing provision of public goods. The British government responded by asserting their control and pushing through the Russell Reforms, rejecting demands for autonomy by French Canada, and leading to the rebellion itself in 1837.
the rebellions happened because of the rebellions in lower Canada and they wanted a change in their government as well
upper and lower Canada were created to keep the different types on people in there own places

Canada, upper and lower after frustrations with political reform.
Mackenzie found little support in the Upper Canada rebellion because most of the leaders had been arrested, which caused the rebellion to lose most of its momentum.
They were against each other
timber trade, transportation Also it had to do with the government Edit********* The rebellion in Lower Canada happened because the merchants and people with money, who owned land were the only ones aloud to vote, while the farmers and lower class people with no land were not aloud.ys i agree but how did it involve transportation......
What were the long-term results of the war?
upper and lower Canada were created to keep the different types on people in there own places
A bad year for crops led to a recession, and in the following years, the banks had begun to tighten credit and recall loans, so when Mackenzie heard of the lower Canada rebellion he decided to start his own rebellion.
