What languages did Charles Tupper speak?

While there's no official record of all the languages Charles Tupper spoke, we can make some educated guesses based on his life and the time period:

* English: This is a given, as he was born and raised in Nova Scotia, Canada, and served as Prime Minister of Canada.

* French: It's likely Tupper had at least a basic understanding of French, as French was (and still is) a significant language in Canada. He served in the government during a time when French-English relations were crucial.

* Latin: Tupper was educated in the classical tradition, so he likely studied Latin, a common language of scholarship in the 19th century.

It's unlikely that he spoke any other languages fluently.
