I like this quote from the article...

"The Battle of the Plains of Abraham began on Sept. 13, 1759. The battle was fought between the British and French armies and proved to be a deciding point in the direction of Canada, with British forces proving victorious."

...and Pierre Trudeau deciding factor in screwing all that up and giving the French back the country.. and the rest of Canada paying for it.

I always wonder how it is that battlefields don't turn up more remains. Even if you buried all of the bodies at some other location, you should still find all kinds of people fragments everywhere.
