I've been studying the time period leading up to the Whiskey Rebellion here in the United States, and I think it is interesting to see how events and trends from that time period continue to shape the American psyche, particularly the extremism in our politics.<br />It was good to see one Canadian's opinion on what they like about Canada that actually had something to do with Canada and her history.Frotz Selfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06246983739730328348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3871409676946408069.post-9079927655868492652012-10-11T12:02:27.175-06:002012-10-11T12:02:27.175-06:00As a french newcomer to Quebec, this was very inte...As a french newcomer to Quebec, this was very interesting, and enlightening.Guillaumehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04703267532902777032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3871409676946408069.post-2558915231528485632012-10-11T11:20:49.492-06:002012-10-11T11:20:49.492-06:00Thanks for a very well-written, comprehensive, and...Thanks for a very well-written, comprehensive, and persuasive response. I'd like to think I'm an American who DOES know my nation's history, primarily because I'm not afraid to admit to the "warts" that are extant on my country's body (perhaps soon to be a corpse?) And warts is a huge euphemism for the terrible actions that have been (and still are) perpetrated in the name of the American people. I am constantly shouted down by my fellow citizens when I seek to converse about things that the US has done wrong.<br /><br />I am still holding out hope that the United States can turn things around, but it will take hard work from our people. I'm not sure the majority of our folk are ready for that hard work, however.<br /><br />Please consider allowing this comment to go through. I've well and truly relinguished any desire to be a troll under your particular bridge.Anthony Simeonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04312134763577949405noreply@blogger.com
