browneyesgml: And what exactly do u think an aboriginal is my friend. Maybe a native. The french were beaten by the english so that leaves them out my friend. The irish werent on the mayflower my friend, they didnt come en masse till they forgot how to feed themselves in the potato famine and the scots were too busy trying to take over Europe for most of the time. If anything the English were partially responsible and last time I checked the Irish and the Scottish didnt like them much. You Irish cant even keep your own country together how the hell did U organize Canada....my friend.
Sorry my Friend but I cannot pass that by without commenting.............
The Famine in Ireland was caused by two things..... 1. The potota crop failed between 1845 & 1849 by a blight (fungus) which was inadvertenly brought in from North America.....
2. Britains Landlords and Government. Potatoes were the staple diet of the Irish people at that time. All other crops were exported to Mainland Britain for consumption as were Cattle, Pork and Mutton. During the Famine the British knew they could save a lot of lives but they continually insisted that the food for export was still exported. They did this with the help of their army. The population of Ireland at the time was 6.5 million. After the Famine the population was 4 Million. It is estimated half of the people emigrated and the other half died of starvation and other related illness's.
I am so sorry to people to post this here but I found above comment extremely insulting, and insensitive to the actual situation that happened. I understand people become irate when in an argument but throwing ill founded comments about in this way just shows that people argue with their hearts and not their heads...
In all of the pogroms and wars that have happened in our great world, this has been forgotten about........
You were out of order sir..........
And to the OP..........my apologies
And I for one think Canadians are the best........
You have decided to go off on a tangent and throw incorrect statements out about certain nations.
Canada is now a nation made up of many races and cultures who seem to live happily alongside each other.
It was made up mainly in the beginning by the native Indians, Scottish, French, Irish, English immigrants.
You only have to look at the place names and populations surnames to have this proved.
When I was at school a teacher taught me RTQ2.... Read the question twice and the same with the answer....
The Irish Potato Famine occurred because of English Land lords.
The Scots have never over taken anyone....as the Irish and Scots were included in what was then the Empire of Great Britain.... any one from either of these nations who joined the army took the king or queen's shilling and was a member of their army....
Most Canadian seems to be proud to have heritage from one of these four countries...
