… A Canadian take on the American Revolutionary War "To be clear; Canada loves you, United States. You buy our oil, you made Drake a superstar and you haven't invaded us for 205 years. As Poland and Ukraine keep reminding us, we really couldn't ask for a better superpower neighbour…"

Glib and ignorant. Talking of 'Canada' in 1775 as if it was today's nation is a poor starting point. It goes down hill from there. (And also published in July 2017. Hardly a current polemic, Tango) |

Tim Hortons beat Krispy Kreame. Wagon Wheels beat Moon Pies. We could learn a few things from our neighbors to the north. Of course our bacon is better than theirs. |

Flanker-
Its written in a tongue in cheek style, and remember, its
a CANADIAN viewpoint. They really are a different country, and don't have to agree with our take on things all the time. And note, in 1775, the USA didn't exist yet either. |

<q.Its written in a tongue in cheek style.
Indeed: 'glib' can lean toward towards that end of the park. its a CANADIAN viewpoint. They really are a different country, and don't have to agree with our take on things Thank you, but I was fairly up to speed on that. Mine was a BRITISH viewpoint and I don't require them- or youse guys- to agree with my take at any time. I just prefer journalists not to write drivel. |

Of course our bacon is better than theirs. Sheesh, that wouldn't say much to their bacon- if it were true…. |

"…our bacon is better than theirs". Of course it is true. There's nothing like delicious, American-made, hickory-smoked, thick cut bacon. |

Everything goes better with bacon. It tastes so good and it is so bad for you. :-) |

USA for the Win! "Oscar Mayer dry-cured, wood-smoked bacon" Fortunately – for my waistline – no-one sells it near me. |

A lot f the lower ranking Loyalist were left behind to fend for themselves. You had to be able to buy a ticket to Canada or Jamaica. So the Canadians only took in the rich Loyalists.
One specific group were all of the Scots who had their and their family's passage paid to America's. These men had remained steadfast loyal. After the war they were left with their debt cleared. Many moved west into western Georgia and eastern Alabama. |
