  I'm of Acadian and Mi'kmaq Ancestry and greatly enjoyed your video. FYI, the English offered a bounty on Mi'kmaq Scalps (Men, Women and children.) Plenty of atrocities followed on all sides.

  I've driven by both those forts 100s of times. When you look at the high ground the French didn't use for the fort, instead focusing on the water approach you can see why they gave up so fast.

  Great video. I’m so happy someone finally highlighted the Battle! only issue I saw was with the British siege. They didn’t make a large defensive earthwork with cannons prior to attacking. They did however create a small trench line with 2 mortars and small artillery pieces guarded by a blockhouse. The trench line is still visible today however a lot was destroyed in the archaeological digs in the 1990’s. Other than that, LOVED the video. You can also look into the Eddy rebellion where they tried to recapture the fort or even the battle of the Peticodiac during the expulsion of the Acadians! Great work!

  I remember the first time I read about Father Le Loutre&apos;s War. It really surprised me that while the Great Powers were taking a breather between the War of Austrian Succession and the Seven Years War, combat never actually fully ceased in Nova Scotia. The region basically suffered one big long war during that time frame...
