You’ll not be shunned by me. Plenty of Canadian forces fought and died in various wars over the years. My great-uncle was one of them. He died in WWI, in France, just a couple of months before the Armistace. It was Canadian forces in WWII that liberated the small town in Holland, that my father was born in. My mother was born in Picton, Ontario and came here as a little girl with her mother. Tim Horton was a cousin to me, although I never knew much about my Canadian family tree until after my mother died in 1990. I have Patriots and Loyalists in my tree from my mother’s side, and there’s some Mohawk blood mixed in there as well. My great-great grandmother was full-blooded, and married John S. Way from Sophiasburgh, Prince Edward County.

Good player. Too bad what happened. We always see advertisements for the restaurant.
