Slavery in Canada was gradually abolished in the early 19th century due to a combination of factors, including growing anti-slavery movements, legal decisions, and the overall shift towards abolition internationally. As British colonies, Canada followed Britain's lead in abolishing slavery to align with the moral imperative against the institution. The Slavery Abolition Act of 1833 finally abolished slavery throughout the British Empire, including in Canada.
Africans were treated very poorly in the colonies, subjected to slavery, forced labor, and extreme violence. They were seen as property rather than as humans, enduring brutal conditions and restrictions on their freedom and rights. This system of exploitation and oppression had lasting impacts on generations of Africans and their descendants.
The term chattel means property. Indentured servitude means I own your labor for a set number of years. Chattel slavery means I own you, and can buy you, sell you, or do anything I want to you.
Moral persuasion was used by abolitionists to appeal to people's sense of ethics, morality, and religious beliefs to convince them that slavery was wrong. They argued that it was immoral to treat fellow human beings as property and that it went against the principles of equality and justice. By framing the issue in moral terms, abolitionists sought to sway public opinion and generate support for the abolition of slavery.
Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, freeing all slaves in Confederate territory. He also supported the 13th Amendment that abolished slavery in the United States. Lincoln's treatment of slaves was focused on ending the institution of slavery and promoting equality for all individuals.
