he bad so mach that some of his rivals like thegreat john defoe aid he was the real inspiration behind laurier bourassa s career was a mix tare of success and failure at times he seemed to hold french canada in bis hands and other times he seemed to be neglected and forgotten in 1806 at twenty even bourassa was elected mp for the area of latoelle under aauriers party the boer war provided him with one of the leading themes of his life laurier had to inspire canadian participation in the war and bourassa criticized laurier for by passing porliam ol he did not oppose canada participation but an
