"By the time the story is over, the crisis dispelled, the stereotype of Typper as humorless, unbending, a thinker in clichés, has evaporated. The real, raw man is known to us. His temptation and agony, his loyalties and patriotism have acquired reality ... I expect to see The First Falls on Monday again, but (of Jack Creley as Charles Tupper) I doubt that the Tupper role will ever receive a basically better interpretation."- Nathan Cohen (The Toronto Star) "There is no (historical) record of the backstage (political) plotting ... But the one Dr. Murphy suggests seems worthy to impose itself on our history as firmly as Shakespeare's view of Richard II." - Herbert Whittaker (The Toronto Globe and Mail)
