    My father was LeBlanc and my mother was Robichaud. Acadian to the core.

    She made me cry at the around the 41:00 mark.
    I never think of how our ancestors must have felt.
    I just feel so grateful they made it. ❤

    Thank you so much to the producers of this documentary. It is a very important and critical time in 'Canadian' history (I use the modern term 'Canadian', not the historic French term which referred to what is now Quebec). In this time of truth and reconciliation, we must never forget that it is imperialism that is the gravest of threats to freedom loving people, not colonialism necessarily. Freedom!

      The Acadian Museum was instrumental in getting the British Crown to at least acknowledge the historical injustice. You can read about it here: acadianmuseum.com/apology.html

    They must be correct about the high fertility rate; one of my Acadian ancestors had 19 children. Honestly, when I watch any videos with Acadian descendants, often I am able to identify facial features similar to mine and my father's family. Its a bit surreal. The amount of distant cousins I must have is astonishing.

      You should consider a DNA test, I did one a few years back, and I probably get a few emails a month about someone matching my DNA. usually a 3rd or 4th cousin

    My 2 main Acadian lines are Thibodeau and LeJeune... Emilie Thibodeau was my 5th great Grandmother on the Jolin side and my Maternal great Gramma was Emma LeJeune. In both cases, their ancestors escaped to Québec, while many of their cousins were deported.

    21:53 I would argue that you are completely wrong, and quite literally, don't know the "first" thing about history. During King Philip's War, between June 20, 1675 - April 12, 1678, English militia exterminated 600 Naragansettes, and took the remainders as hostages or sold them into slavery. It was actually considered to be the biggest war in colonial American history. That War basically eradicated the Naragansette race.
