For Teachers from Canada, who know history...

Can you tell me your take on the US Revolution. and the Torries plight to Canada.. and how did France give up Canada to the Crown>?
Ive heard your history is different than the one our history books lead on... Ive only heard talk, nothing more

What do your history books say about Canada? Canadians are fascinated to the point of masochistic apoplexy by what others think of them. Indeed simply to be thought of at all brings out the inner Peter Lorre in all Canadians.

Give me a minute. I'm going to the fridge for some twinkies. When I get back you can tell me every little painful detail.

Incidentally, for children under forty, the following should make the Peter Lorre reference clear. Lorre is the little guy stealing the scene from Bogart.
