I wonder if the Parti Quebecois version of history will include the fact that on the Plains of Abraham, once it was clear the British under General James Wolfe would win the battle, the French army defending Quebec threw down their weapons and ran away to hide in the town. In the hours after the battle, dozens of French soldiers were captured by the British after they were discovered hiding in their homes, in some cases literally cowering behind their women and children. It is a sad, and disappointing, episode but an undisputed fact of history.

If the PQ wishes to rewrite the history books, here's hoping the include it all, even the unflattering stuff.

Somehow, I doubt they will.
