Key word being "did".

Are you so sure? I am pretty sure Canadians had slaves.

The Act of the Legislative Assembly that was passed that year was a compromise. It confirmed the ownership of slaves already in Upper Canada, but did allow children of slaves born after the Act to be automatically freed when they reached 25 years of age


Imagine that.

All Canada did was free them before the South did.

Now what?
