Claiming a second empire: imperial expansion and its critics. Establishing settler dominance: Canada - "If they treat the Indians humanely, all will be well"; Australasia - one or two "honorable cannibals" in the house?; South Africa - "The Hottentot at the hustings, or the Hottentot in the wilds with his gun on his shoulder". Entrenching settler control: Canada - "A vote the same as any other person"; Australasia - "Australia for the white man"; South Africa - saving the white voters from being "utterly swamped".
