Seems Marg and Carol are guilty of a number of misconseptions. The EU has
not been a friend to Britain in many respects. Talk to the farmers. Who
knows the true and full facts regarding the EU. union? Talk to some of the
citizens of Britain as I have done on a regular basis. I hope Britain will
always stand up for the rights of its own citizens, IK

> Hello and Season's Greetings.

biological mother who was a War Bride from Scotland..She followed a Canadian
Soldier to Canada after the WW2. Her maiden name was Catherine Fitzsimmons
and she married a Canadian soldier...last name Linton. After I was born in
1950, my mother returned to Scotland and I have never met her.... If you can

appreciated.
