One more Opinion !! I have great respect for Canadians and the Canadian Government. As an American I am also proud of my country and it's flag. My Maternal Ggrandparents in Maine removed to Nova Scotia at the onset of hostilities. They did not want to be disloyal to the Crown. When hostilities ceased one brother stayed in Nova Scotia, one returned to Maine the other settled on Cape Cod. I am proud of the ones that went to Nova Scotia and did not fight. On the other hand my Paternal ancestors fought Cornwallis all over North Carolina, In fact my Ggrandfather was a Captain in the North Carolina Militia, along with several brothers and nephews. Naturally I am proud of the stand that they took . I am also glad that they did not come in contact with each other. There is a real possibility that one could have killed the other. The fact that I am righting this is proof enough for me. I am just glad to have the opportunity to say that there is really no difference in a Canadian and an American. Doug:
