“[Anonymous Member of the Parliament of Nova Scotia] Government is considered not as the parental Protector of the Rights of Individual as needed and faithful Steward of the Public Property: But rather as a Junta of cunning and wicked Men, whose Views extend no further than their own private Emolument, and who further the Distresses of the Community in order to promote a slavish Dependence on themselves.

...it is not to be wondered at, that the real Good of the Province has never been attended to.”
