We barely escaped the rabid snarling jaws of Yankee Imperialism and it's so called 'manifest destiny'
Yes, we were afraid the North would turn it's attention to us after defeating the South.

Only trouble is... the new confederation was tilted in favour of Ontario and Quebec and Nova Scotia quickly dropped from probably the richest province to a poor cousin after it's normal trading partners in the Boston States disappeared.

You lucked out...remaining a province of Canada. Had you been taken over
by the USA, you'd be as backwards and racist as we are.

No need to be embarrassed Harry. There are plenty of decent,
hardworking and non-prejudiced citizens in the USA. Apparently you just
have never met any in your circle of friends.

The flaw in this story is summed up by a line near the end

"Once the war ended, the priority for Americans was reconstruction,
not expansion."

The US was very interested in expansion, they just went west instead
of north.


Weather-wise Massachusetts is as far north as I'd ever want to be and
it's quickly losing it's appeal.

It must just be a Maryland thing. The only Klan rally I ever saw was
about 20 miles from your house, over in Chuck County.



Right...without the Klan, there is no racism. I got it. D'oh.

Actually, all of my friends are decent, hard-working and not racist. I
had in mind some of your friends *here* who are not decent, not
hard-working, and certainly racist. You can start with your buddies
Herring and FragrantJim.

You missed the rest of the post I guess. There is more racism in the
north these days than there is in the south. You just hide it with
money. Rich white people create enclaves that blacks can't afford to
move into.


I'll be sure to tell that to the three black homeowners in our
subdivision at the annual meeting of the association. Sadly, the black
family who lived diagonally across the street moved "uptown" to
Annapolis, another place out of reach for blacks. Sadly, because the
wife of the family was a Halle Berry look-alike, except younger and
prettier.

You have chosen to live within her means in an "affordable"

You make the mistake to think that you're a "rich white person". You're not. Failure to pay taxes and your creditors does not grant you entry into that club.

I don't think the issue was Halle Berry or Colin Powell.
99.9% of black families can't afford to live in the nicer suburbs.
DC is an exception, simply because of affirmative action in the
government, your biggest employer.

blacks can only succeed due to "affirmative action."
