LOL...

(actually I shouldn't laugh given all the Canadian dollars I'm holding right now...sold a condo about a year ago.  I just can't bring myself to take the exchange loss right now.  I'm earning Canadian $ interest on the money too, so it's like a never ending circle effect.  The wife just started work at a bank here though so I can get slightly better rates than I was able to before.)

Canada has the largest French community in the world that has yet to surrender to anybody.  :D

And as a Canadain, I will never fly Rook or Bishop. as when I first signed onto AH, I was placed in a Knight tower waaaaay back in Beta one. I started as a Knight and will forever be a Knight. Sorry Rip, Im staying.

You forgot about the surrender of Quebec City to the British, Battle of the Plains of Abraham, ending French rule of New France.

why be resistent to change? Canada is the only country in the world without loyalty, being unsure whether to be British, French, or American.

sorting by countries is a bad idea.

it'll create different balancing at different times of the day.
