My “History is written by the… special interest groups?” or “If at first you don’t succeed, wait a couple centuries until the winners become wieners” award goes to… Quebec.

A re-enactment of the Battle of the Plains of Abraham is won by the French …without firing a shot.  Canadian National Battlefields Commission chairman Andre Juneau says battle re-enactment plans have been scrapped, “because of the impossibility of ensuring the safety of the public and the participants.”   Quebec sovereigntists denounced the planned celebrations as an insulting reminder of their ancestors’ defeat 250 years ago. Many threatened to protest the events.
