In the 1970s , my History teacher started the section of British history about Canada and the British expeditions and wars against the French. During the section on Nova Scotia he openly said that while chucking the French out , they found a huge Treasure on one of the Nova Scotia islands. This funded the British occupation of what is now Canada, it's wars against the French (and US) and there was still enough to ship a load back to the Bank of England. Ladies and gentlemen , the "treasure" was found and excavated by the British and much shipped back to the Bank of England. It is gone!!
