My Mom was born on Cape Breton——a beautiful place.
.
I heard that everything on Cape Breton was remote. That was an Air Farce sketch that Benton Fraser in it.
My ancestors came to the New World via Sydney, Cape Breton Island. Lots of hardy Scots came through this area after fleeing oppression in Scotland, some settling in the area and others disbursing to points far and wide.
I went back for a family reunion in 2000. It is stunningly beautiful and the people were very nice. Thomas Alva Edison had a large mansion nearby, and there’s lots of other history afoot, like the plight of the Acadians and the French fort that France had to abandon and turn over to England, which I toured.
If not for all the filthy subhuman Canadians, I’d consider moving there.
