1867 was when Canada became a confederation. After the British conquered Quebec in 1608, they proclaimed the British North America Act, they gave Quebec special considerations because they believed that thousands of Americans would move north and the french would become a weak minority. Maybe someone should have told them to look at a map, leave Virginia or Florida to live in Quebec, ya right I guess they thought Quebec had the most to offer Americans on the east coast. But I guess Americans would pick America because it's America, not for the government, but for the geography. I would think it would be the same for Canadians. I'm sure they love living in Canada.

S/P - in History, facts ARE facts. It's only someone's interpretation of the facts that messes things up! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

The general public likes to believe the other version. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I grew up believing the truth, Tom. Since childhood I've been trying to explain it to people and they all believe the other version. It has me second guessing myself. It's refreshing to have someone else remember the truth. You see the same re-writing of history here with the aboriginals and Quebec

I seem to remember hearing Lincoln freed the slaves in the north so that that they could fight for the north. While he left the slaves in the south enslaved.

Lincoln could not really "free" the slaves until the Southern states' government was beaten. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
