*2010* ~ Year of the British Home Child in Canada

"At first Matthew suggested a home boy. But I said 'no' flat to that. 'They may be all right--I [a]m not saying they're not--but no London street Arabs for me,' I said. 'Give me a native born at least. There'll be a risk, no matter who we get. But I'll feel easier in my mind and sleep sounder at nights if we get a born Canadian.'" -- Marilla Curthbert, Anne of Green Gables
