Wasnt our early struggle for responsible government? I mean in history we learned all about the Family Compact and le Chateau Clique.... It was our form of rebellion against the British old boys club. That action may well sum up the differences between our two countries. With the circumstances being different, the American Insurrection was triggered by irresponsible government brought to a head (taxation without representation...) Our little rebelion had a similar genesis, irresponsible government due to graft without representation. By having peace, order and good government, we are at liberty to pursue life & happiness.
So we fought for, and obtained good government, which appears to be what every nationis striving for.
