I hate having to type in the whole damn title of this thing everytime I want to get here and edit this page. Why do we need the date range anyway? Can we please rename this to Quebec (colony)?!?! Kevlar6701:24, 18 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

The map is inaccurate; it includes Nova Scotia among the "Thirteen Colonies", which of course it was not. Talk of the "Thirteen Colonies" from 1774 is anachronistic anyway; at that point, the Continental Congress included delegates from only twelve colonies (Georgia didn't send an official delegate until 1775).

I don't think so. Initially (pre-1776), Nova Scotia was labelled by some as “the 14th American Colony”, and there was ambivalence over whether the colony should join the more southern colonies in their defiance of Britain. This is reflected on the map as an “indefinite boundary” (kinda hard to see). After the war, Nova Scotia was firmly in British hands.--BCtalk to me00:54, 8 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
