He was later promoted to Lieutenant and fought in the Chasseurs Canadiens. During the war, he started studying to become a doctor and continued his studies in Philadelphia after the war. He obtained his medical licence in 1819 and practised medicine in Montmagny. Taché was elected to the new Legislative Assembly of the Province of Canada in 1841 as a member from Canada East and held numerous posts in successive administrations, including, for a time, premier (1856–1857, 1864–1865). Taché actively participated in the debate on the potential creation of a Canadian confederation, defended proposals for the new form of government in part because it would serve to reaffirm Canada's link to the British Empire. At the Confederation Debates, he stated that "Confederation was imperative if Canadians 'desired to remain British and monarchical, and ... desired to pass our children these advantages{{' "}}.[2] These ideas reflected the ideas of the conservative Parti bleu (with which Taché was associated). Vivid supporter of the British Crown, Taché expressed ideas of loyalty even before the debates of regarding the creation of Canada's confederation: "in 1848, he delivered his famous idea of French-Canadian loyalty to the British crown: ... 'we will never forget our allegiance till the last cannon which is shot on this continent in defence of Great Britain is fired by the hand of a French-Canadian{{' "}}.[3] This can certainly explain why Taché worked with Sir John A. Macdonald and other significant characters who were Fathers of the Confederation and who shared similar views. Therefore, these alliances led to the Great Coalition of 1864 – 'a government led by Cartier, Brown and Macdonald under the premiership of a bleu elder statesman, Sir Étienne-Paschal Taché'[4] - responsible for the Canadian Confederation. For this matter, Taché presided of over the Quebec City conference of 1864. Sir Étienne-Paschal Taché's loyalty was even officially recognized as an "aide-de-camp to [ Queen Victoria ], [and] held the honorary rank of a Colonel in the army".[5] Furthermore, he left an important legacy, not only regarding the formation of Canada, but also to the province of Quebec's heritage: "Taché is widely credited with coining the provincial motto of Quebec, later adopted by the French-speaking Royal 22nd Regiment [...]: {{lang|fr|je me souviens}} ('I remember')."[6] Taché's home in Montmagny, Quebec, was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1990.[7] Notes1. ^{{ cite web | url=http://www.canadahistory.com/sections/eras/confederation/Fathers.html | title= Fathers of Confederation | publisher=www.canadahistory.com | accessdate=7 October 2013}} 2. ^Tom, and Rosalind Dixon, eds.
