RE: Houlton, Maine...northern terminus of America's longest N-S Highway, Rt. 95. Part I.

lol yeah I like the way @zorank said about the towns people. That's what you call a sleepy little small town on Sunday morning anyway.
Very interesting and interesting history, great looking church too.
and I like that statue.
those Canadians! like there aren't enough trees in Canada?

Sort:  

LOL...Yes, but the Queen of England still owns most of them.. True. It's called "crown land."

what the??? no way.
why don't they buy it back from her?
wow those Canadians! lol

The Queen of England is one of the three richest people on the planet. She still owns most of rural Canada, larges swathes of Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, Canada...etc.

It's not a question of "buying it back." The Crown of England has owned these lands for centuries, and only the aborigines (who were mostly nomadic) preceded them.

I wonder if they would sell it though? to the Canadian government

The Canadian government is even more in debt, per capita, than we are.

And besides, Great Britain IS the Canadian government.

what? Canada is a puppet of Brittain?
plus I thought we were the most indebted nation.
I just need to listen to you everyday. might learn somethin.

Do you know who is plastered all over their currency? That tells you who really controls a nation--whoever shows up on the currency. Also, do you know who the Governor-General of Canada is? Would an independent nation have a "Governor" anything? They also have a "Prime Minister." Ministers work FOR A MONARCHY. Canada has no monarchy of their own, so guess who he represents?
