HC Deb 28 July 1879 vol 248 c1413
MR. E. JENKINS

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies, Whether it is true that the Governor General of Canada has superseded M. Letellier de St. Just as Lieutenant Governor of Quebec; whether this was by advice of Her Majesty's Government; and, when he will lay the Papers upon the Table?

SIR MICHAEL HICKS-BEACH

I think the statement is probably true, although I have received no official confirmation of it. Papers will be laid on the Table as soon as I have received them from the Governor General of Canada, which I expect will be in a few days, and then the hon. Member will be able to see exactly what has been done.
