Title
A Posthumous Honour for a Conspicuous Life : Dr. Gaspard in Quebec
Abstract
This story is an attempt to understand an unknown individual whose life was significant but has now been forgotten. He was American-born, yet his mother tongue was French. He served Canada in French units but embraced the English-speaking Black community once in Montreal. His life speaks of a complexity of language not often explored in narratives of Quebec’s English-speaking community, particularly in those histories about Blacks in the province. I trust this will be the beginning.
