Thanks for checking in with those stories.

I am American. But my maternal grandmother was born in Ontario, and my dad is 3rd generation from immigrants from French Canada. He is buried in a catholic cemetery in Massachusetts, and about half the headstones have French names.

Truth be told, the French settled in Canada long before the British. They were after all, the first people to call themselves Canadians (Canadiens).
