Mcdonald tell citizens of his proposed confederation would call themselves? Would this be a selling point for French - Canadians? Explain ur answer.....'

He said they would call themselves Americans, and I don't get the second question.
Answered by Ms. Sue
Do you think French-Canadians would want to be called "Americans?"

Answered by Sara
No I don't think they would. That is kind of being racist to their religion and stuff, their own identies are being withered away.I don't understand what it means by selling point? Wouldnt selling point be for the French-Canadians to accept being called Americans??
Answered by Ms. Sue
A selling point is one that will convince other people. Obviously, French-Canadians wouldn't be convinced to join the confederation if they were called Americans.

Answered by Sara
Alright, thank you:) So this would not be a selling point for them, because they do not wish to be called Americans. By being called Americans, they lose their own identity.
