Forth of July

"Your Majesty, your Canadian, why are you doing a post on the forth of july?"
"Because I want to."

Because, long ago, several middle class white anglo-saxon protestants got together in a room and said "No, we're not going to pay taxes for basic civil services and defense. We want a seat in a Parliament thousands of miles away, accross a ocean." And when the British refused these so-called utterly outragous demands, these men new they had the entire support of the colonies, or at least one third of the colonies, behind them. And indeed they where able to do so, and in their victory, they founded a nation based on freedom, a nation which if you where a middle class white anglo-saxon protestant and not a loyalist, you where free to fall and rise as you may. As for the loyalist, that foolish third, they moved to Canada and created Ontario... so to my American niehbors, I say thanks alot, eh, those hooser out in Ontario are crazy-go-nuts.
