 Dear Canada / int_14beeefd
comment
Darker and Edgier: Compared to Dear America, which generally tried to find a way to make the stories at least somewhat optimistic even when the subject matter was dark. Dear Canada, on the other hand, tends to be much more frank about telling stories that don't always have a positive slant. The most readily visible example is Pieces Of The Past, Dear Canada's take on the Holocaust. Where Dear America told a story with a protagonist who escapes Austria early in the Nazi occupation, limiting the horrors she was exposed to, Dear Canada went with a story of a girl who didn't get out until after the war, so her memories include time in a ghetto, losing all her family members one by one (including witnessing the deaths of her parents), and spending several years on the run to avoid being caught by the Germans. Also the case for the respective stories about the Titanic disaster, largely due to the Dear Canada version being retrospective rather than real-time, which allows the writer to really dig in to how traumatizing the experience was even for a survivor.

Unreliable Narrator: Since all the books are told in first-person POV, the perspective of each is limited by the information known to the narrator and their level of understanding, and as such they may not be objectively correct in all instances.

She only returns to living with her mother and stepfather because living on the reservation with them is the only way to avoid being forced to go back to her Boarding School of Horrors. At the end of No Safe Harbour, Charlotte and Duncan are taken in by their maternal grandparents after losing their parents in the explosion.

Former Friend of Alpha Bitch
 Dear Canada / int_29a4bb9f

Former Friend of Alpha Bitch: In To Stand On My Own, Bessie is a mean bully who in one scene begins verbally abusing and throwing mud at a classmate with no provocation whatsoever. At the beginning of the story, she and Noreen are friends, but when Noreen becomes ill with polio, Bessie completely vanishes from her life, forcing Noreen to confront the fact that Bessie was only ever going to be Noreen's friend so long as it suited her. (On the flip side, Ann, the girl Bessie was bullying in the beginning, turns out to be a true friend to Noreen, writing to and visiting her while she's recovering, even though they barely knew each other prior to Noreen's illness.)

Honor Before Reason: In Days of Toil and Tears, after being injured and unable to do his usual work, Flora's uncle James quits his job entirely rather than be forced to do work he feels is beneath him, even though he knows his family really can't afford to lose an income, and also refuses to ask anyone for help because he doesn't want to accept "charity". Fortunately, James' brother manages to find a way to help them without wounding James' pride — inviting them to join him out West while wording the invitation in such a way as to suggest that James would be doing him a favor by accepting — but everything would have been a lot easier if James had been willing to prioritize his family over his pride in the first place.

It's All My Fault
 Dear Canada / int_5ad80bf8
comment
It's All My Fault: In That Fatal Night, Dorothy is convinced that she caused the death of her caretaker, Miss Pugh, because on the afternoon before the Titanic sank, she threw Miss Pugh's things everywhere in retaliation for Miss Pugh yelling at her during a meal, and then when the accident occurred, Miss Pugh was dithering around and seemed confused and consequently didn't manage to get off the ship, which Dorothy assumed was because she couldn't find her things after Dorothy threw them around. However, a stewardess who was aboard the ship eventually tells Dorothy that she had found the disarray and put everything back in order after Dorothy went to sleep; Miss Pugh most likely just panicked and that's why she was acting the way she was. Learning this is one of the major things that allows Dorothy to let go of some of the trauma and begin to heal.

Massive Numbered Siblings: Several of the protagonists have big families. In Banished From Our Home, Angelique has seven siblings. In No Safe Harbour, Charlotte is the youngest (by literal minutes, since she's a twin) of five, though she loses her two sisters (along with her parents) in the explosion. At the end of Pieces of the Past, Rose becomes one of six when she's adopted by a family with five biological children. Fee in If I Die Before I Wake has a twin sister, two older sisters (who are also twins), and a younger brother.

Illegal Guardian: In Orphan At My Door, Jasper Wilson's master Carl Stone is supposed to be his guardian until he is eighteen. Jasper is regularly beaten and even had his clothes confiscated, is starved to the point Jasper steals from the dog (who is just as starved), and when Jasper panics at seeing a cow after never having seen one before, Stone's response is to break his arm with a spade. It is a small wonder Jasper ran away. Carl is also a Big Brother Bully to his widowed sister and prevents her from seeing her best friend; she writes in a letter that she is grateful that Jasper escaped, and is glad that Carl never married because of how he would have treated a wife. Fortunately, at the end of the story, Carl is arrested for his abuse of Jasper, while Jasper and his sister Marianna are adopted into a loving family.

Boarding School of Horrors
 Dear Canada / int_963e36bd
comment
Boarding School of Horrors: The main subject of These Are My Words. All of the children's possessions are taken away, they're forcibly cut off from their culture (having their hair, an important cultural symbol, cut and being forbidden from speaking Native languages), and aren't even allowed to do fun things when they're not in class, and this leads them to take out their frustration on each other which only makes things worse. The only thing Violet has anything good to say about is the food (and even that speaks more to the poverty that many of them live in when they're not there — it's not that the food is amazing, but that food is often in short supply at their homes, so simply having enough to eat is an upgrade), and that does little to make up for the misery of the experience. It's so bad that Violet is willing to move to the reservation with her mother and stepfather (she had previously lived with her grandmother) and deal with the complicated relationship she has with them if that's what it takes to avoid being forced back to the residential school.

Deliberate Values Dissonance
 Dear Canada / int_aabe2fb
comment
Deliberate Values Dissonance: Commonplace due to the diaries taking place the past. In A Desperate Road to Freedom, Julia May and Noah get looked down upon by their fellow white townsfolk, with both Julia May's teacher and white friend's mother frowning upon her dreams to be a teacher. Even more so for Alone in An Untamed Land, Hélène and her sister Catherine are chosen to be filles à marier, French girls who are sent to New France (now Montreal) to marry men and raise the population due to the skewed gender ratio. Hélène is thirteen and turns fourteen while Catherine is sixteen when this is brought up. Hélène is pressured about marriage despite being only fourteen, with a suitor commenting that girls even younger than her marry, and her diary ends with her accepting a proposal from her friend's single father, who also comments that he is not that old, only thirty. Another girl also marries a much older man. There is also some discriminatory comments about Indigenous people due to the animosity between both, with some who kill French settlers. Orphan at My Door features heavy discrimination against Home Children where they are viewed as diseased in both mind and body, heavily abused and the Sadist Teacher is disappointed when any of them show good learning results.
