      As an American, I find Canadian history fascinating. We share similar history, but in Canada, it seemed to be a true "love triangle? First nations, Brits, and French. The French influence being a bit more prevalent in CA. If I were a young man, I'd be heading North.

    I'm surprised they didn't include Sir. John A's sister in-law in this docudrama. If you visit his house in Kingston, Ontario 'The Bellevue House', there are numerous intimate letters written to his dying wife's sister. It appears that his sister in-law was his rock through the trials of giving birth to this nation.
