text: What is the problem?  In the beginning there were three of us: the aboriginals who arrived here before Europeans, the French and the English.
  
  - for better or worse the English fact has tended to dominate in Canada
  - we are now consumed with and spending $billions to recognize the standing of aboriginals in Canada
  - why would we try to deny rather than celebrate the third leg of our history?
  
  We are who we are, and one military battle centuries ago doesn't change that.
