Whats your point?

You're calling 8 or 10 whole states that included a large percentage of the U.S. population back then small?
I won't quibble over usage of the word "small". I suppose one of my points could be that our slave issue compared to your slave issue is insignificant at best. The U.S. suffers it's legacy of slavery to this day with racial issues and hatred. Canada's slavery issue was resolved nearly 100 years before yours was, and today we pretty much have no racial issues where blacks are concerned. Canadians are very much mostly non-prejudiced peoples.
We do, however, share a common heritage with the U.S. when it comes to Native Americans.
