I don't think Lafayette would recognize France either. France hated England (as did Spain), and their involvement in the Revolutionary War was a bit opportunistic. Hey, we aren't pounding the Lobsterbacks here, we're just helping the Colonists. Right? ;) From what I've read about Lafayette, he was fairly patriotic about the Colonists, and might have been looking down the road a piece.<br /><br />Glen: I've never been to Quebec, but I've heard a few stories. Not all are complementary. I hear that it's worse than pretty much anything we've got in the U.S., but like I say, I've never been. Thanks for reading.<br />Mad Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06190137186843630543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1531929769862216250.post-36524719603080458202019-07-05T08:55:55.576-04:002019-07-05T08:55:55.576-04:00That is just the fwench being fwench.

If I had my way, we'd build a wall around that poxy province so that nothing could get in or out - and then fill it up with water. Those people are arrogant, corrupt and ungrateful and no bones about it.Glen Filthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03256741311142364722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1531929769862216250.post-83444898883204396822019-07-04T11:36:16.215-04:002019-07-04T11:36:16.215-04:00Mad Jack:
