In 1763 and the Treaty of Paris, France kept Martinique and Guadeloupe and gave up all rights to Canada to the UK. Everyone laughed because Martinique was the largest sugar country in the world.

The Brits took the timber in Canada (it required about 5,000 trees per ship) and produced the most powerful navy in the world. And 40 years later that one armed, half blind, honey badger Admiral Nelson whipped the snot out of that midget Napoleon and his spanish cronies at Trafalgar, but not before he sent that final infamous signal flag message to the fleet....."England expects that every man will do his duty".

So you are saying trade agreements with two countries have nothing to do with politics....I see, you could have just said "I am a product of the Louisiana education system".
