Who was the first leader of a responsible government in the Canadas?

Lord Durham
Louis Riel
La Fontaine
John A. Macdonald

The correct answer is: La Fontaine

Charles La Fontaine was the first leader of a responsible government in the Canadas. This means that he was the first leader who was accountable to the people for his actions and policies. Lord Durham, Louis Riel, and John A. Macdonald were all important figures in Canadian history, but they were not the first leaders of a responsible government in the Canadas. Lord Durham was a British politician who wrote a report on the political situation in British North America. Louis Riel was a leader of the Métis people in western Canada. John A. Macdonald was a dominant figure in Canadian politics who served as the first Prime Minister of Canada, but he did not lead the first responsible government in the Canadas. Therefore, they are all incorrect options for this specific question.
