Oh dear! I forgot that on yesterday's date in 1813, the 104th Foot Regiment of mostly Irish and Scots New Brunswickers began their march from Fredericton, New Brunswick up the St. John river in dangerously low temperatures and bad weather, traversed the Madawaska Snow Road and arrived in Uppity Canada in time to save Canada from the scourge of Yankee imperialism during the War of 1812.

Yer welcome Canada. And, yer welcome for the railroad... yer welcome for the Seaway... yer welcome for all the "wood, wind and water" and labour and educated people who built this country that came from The Maritimes. Now, could you give us a fuckin break, EH?
