All matters Canadian / Canada

It was rumored that one of Gen. Robert E. Lee's Col.s told one of Gen. U.S. Grant's Colonel's at Appomatox Court House when the South surrendered "The only reason you won, was because you had more Irish fighting on your side!"

Actually, I suspect it was because the Union fielded three million men and the Confederacy fielded one million.

It may be as simple at that.
