Papineau started the rebellion, known as the Lower Canada Rebellion, because he believed in the need for political reform and greater democracy in Lower Canada (modern-day Quebec). He was frustrated with the British colonial government's refusal to address the grievances and demands of the French-speaking population. The rebellion was an attempt to bring about political change and assert the rights of the French Canadians.
