Now that we are talking about lines in the sand, the only real line I know about... and this is a shameful thing, is the one round about Landsdowne house, where the fr and en, used to duke it out with muskets over who had the biggest patch of fur.. or something like that.

In fact all or really northern ontario was english and all of southern ontario was fr. About 1730 they flipped it completely on its head and built York. this is what started the flq. if you stop your car sometimes you will see them hiding out in the ditches along the 400, with their colourful hats and sashes, corn cob pipes. good know what they do to survive. I think they mostly hunt carcajou in the woods...

now some people think this is very funny, but a certain percentage of my friends who always had quaint expressions like "close the light.." just look at me with this blank stare when I relate that.. I guess they don't believe people actually live in the woods.. I guess it's a modern conceit...
