Struggling to grasp reality since 1984. a blog by Peter Knegt.

Speaking of Canada Day…

This is a fantastic feature from The New York Times, featuring 11 Canadians living in the United States sharing what they miss most about home.

Best quote:

“In history class, in seventh grade (or as we like to say in Canada, grade seven) we learned the story of the American Revolution — from the British perspective. Turns out you were all a bunch of ungrateful tax cheats. And you weren’t very nice to the Loyalists. What I miss most about Canada is getting the truth about the United States.”

— MALCOLM GLADWELL, a staff writer for The New Yorker and the author, most recently, of “Outliers: The Story of Success”
