Re: Ten Questions to Ask Your History Teacher
The fictional cow you're referring to was said to have started the Great Chicago Fire.
You're missing the point. When do you ever hear a good thing about Canada in your daily life, from the people around you? I understand talking about our neighbor to the north isn't exactly everyday conversation, but it comes up now and then. In my experiences, at least, when Canada does come into a conversation, the people involved can only think of negative things to say about it.
Now, I'll admit I may have been over generalizing and over exaggerating my previous statement, but it was to make the point that 95% of the things I've ever heard about Canada from everyday people is negative.
Uh, okay, so when we burned down Toronto in the war of 1812, it was because one of our cows kicked a lantern?
