As the single largest landholder in the State of Mississippi, I would hope for this ceremony at least for the Queen who years ago was also here to open the St. Lawrence Seaway with President Eisenhower along the US/Canadian border, an economic benefit to both our countries, though no port exists on it in my state of New York as Abbie Hoffman, once somewhat, pointed out. Politics aside, they shoveled a whole battlefield there we once fought each other on, Crysler's Farm Battlefield, the "Battle That Saved Canada" from our failed invasion in 1813, into a big pile, (covered in acres of flowers when she visited it in the Queen's Jubilee year) so to work in international cooperation on vital matters of business around the Great Lakes of North America. If only we could do the same in other countries without the display of our past, i.e. the show of brute force, which has lead to insurrection time and time again as shown in our "mutual" histories we may yet rescue our once mutual belligerent reputations.
