History is a means to finding some beginning. A beginning to the world we live in, to the country we praise, to the family we love. To me I found my family connections through this class into the introduction into Canadian history. First through my research project essay, learning how my ancestors lived in the Viking era. Second finding relationships in the readings to how the history in my own family related to through A Fille du Roi’s. Canadian history is an inspiration to my education.
