Thread Name: Lyr Add: Acadian Driftwood (Robbie Robertson)
Subject: RE: Acadian Driftwood - Plains of Abraham?
As the bi-lingual tour guide on my 1st trip ro Québec,how steep the embankment Gen. Wolfe climbed depends on whose version of the story you are hearing. The legacy of the conflict still carrys on politically and socially. There are many Accadians ib Aroostook County in the good old state of Maine and many of them pop up out of the wood work where I live in the Portland area.

Don't bet the farm on it but I believe Jai la mal du pays means "I'm home sick". Sais tu is either "You know", or "Do you know"?
