...population and live chiefly in Quebec. British merchants, traders and settlers followed after Quebec was captured by the British in 1759, their numbers enhanced after 1776 by immigrant American colonials who preferred British rule to U.S. independence. Today 40% of all Canadians are Anglo-Saxons. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, millions more came: Germans and Swedes to fish and till the prairies; Ukrainians, now the fourth largest group in Canada, to found towns with unlikely New World names like Dnieper and New Kiev...

Last summer--the rules may be up for limit revision this year--girls had to be in by 1 a.m. on week nights, 2 a.m. on weekends. They are allowed three "late night" permissions for the entire summer, subject to prior blanket permission from their parents and specific authorization from their proctor, usually a graduate student...
