Description
English: Published in July 1870, when Canada took possession of Rupert's Land following the Red River Rebellion, this cartoon appeared just three years after the birth of Canada in 1867. Canada is depicted as a child, with Great Britain, represented as Mother Britannia, holding out her protective arms. Uncle Sam, representing the United States, stands on the other side, ready to "grab" the child if it falls.
Deutsch: Erschienen im Juli 1870, als Kanada Besitz von Ruperts Land nahm im Anschluss an die Red River Rebellion. Diese Karikatur erschien nur drei Jahre nach der Geburt von Kanada im Jahr 1867. Kanada ist als Kind dargestellt, mit Großbritannien, dargestellt als Mutter Britannia und sie hielt ihre schützenden Armen auf. Uncle Sam, als Vertreter der Vereinigten Staaten, steht auf der anderen Seite, bereit das Kind zu "greifen", wenn er fällt.
Español: Publicado en julio de 1870, cuando Canadá tomó posesión de la tierra de Rupert después de la Rebelión del río Rojo. Esta caricatura apareció tan sólo tres años después del nacimiento de Canadá en 1867. Canadá se muestra como un niño, con Gran Bretaña, representada como la Madre Britania, extendiendo sus brazos protectores. Tío Sam, en representación de los Estados Unidos, se encuentra en el otro lado, listo para "agarrar" al niño si se cae.
Français : La caricature est publiée en juillet 1870, au moment où le Canada acquiert la Terre de Rupert, après la rébellion de la rivière Rouge. La Confédération canadienne était née trois ans plus tôt, en 1867. Dans cette caricature, la jeune fédération canadienne, qui n'a que trois ans, prend les traits d'un enfant. La Grande-Bretagne, son ancienne métropole, est représentée par Mère Britannia, lui tendant des bras protecteurs. Oncle Sam, qui personnifie les États-Unis, se tient de l'autre côté, prêt à « attraper » l'enfant s'il devait tomber.
Nederlands: Deze karikatuur verscheen in juli 1870, op het moment dat Canada bezit nam van Rupert's Land, na de Red River Rebellie. De Canadese Confederatie was pas 3 jaar eerder ontstaan in 1867. In deze karikatuur wordt Canada afgebeeld als een kind, met Groot Brittannië als moeder Britannia, die haar beschermende armen uitsteekt. Uncle Sam, de personificatie van de Verenigde Staten, staat aan de andere kant, klaar om het kind te "grijpen" mocht het vallen.
