I lived on the Mira in Marion Bridge and went Marion Bridge (Consolidated?) School in grade 9. I'll write more about it when I have time, probably on the weekend.

I wrote about this song to a Cape Breton list server and started some controversy. I was shocked that something that I wrote started controversy. I've changed computers and hard drives several times since then but I'll search to see if I can find Cape Bretoners' takes on Song for the Mira.

You can find Marion Bridge by going to www.mapblast.com, selecting Canada and entering Marion Bridge. If you float up a couple of levels by clicking the enlarging green buttons, you can see where Marion Bridge fits in Cape Breton and North America. If you jump on the biggest button, you can even see Orillia (but they leave out Toronto.) Those American mapblasters really know how o draw a map!
