Thanks Hugh for those interesting stamps AND historical info. Interestingly enough, one of the consequences of me spending 8 years in Europe (as great as that was!) was that French history is mostly what I studied in the French Lycees in England and Belgium, so I remained woefully ignorant of Canadian History, really (but hey, let me tell ya about Louis the 16th... World War 1... ) 

One Canadain TV series I REALLY appreciated (and still have in storage on DVDs), was CBC's Canada - A People's History. What an excellent way for this chick to get caught up on what I missed, LOL! I highly recommend it to everyone!
