We're going off the rails folks. Grace decided to take some creative liberty with the Responsible Government Heritage Minute (we get it, the Queen was super chill and let some of us vote) and teaches Linnea instead about an unsung hero of Responsible Government, Halifax's own Joseph Howe. Howe could we not? https://www.historicacanada.ca/content/heritage-minutes/responsible-government

Oh and he had a pretty interesting nickname...probably wouldn't fly in 2021.  https://www.historicacanada.ca/content/heritage-minutes/richard-pierpoint
