Wow, you really adopted this whole rebel thing quickly. Not three days ago you were a staunch unionite, and now you're threatening to push them north of the border :p

That might not be such a good idea XD. Allow me to recite a passage from Blood and Daring:

"With talk of war everywhere, a Union officer visiting his wife in Toronto made the mistake of wearing his neat blue uniform into a tavern. He ordered a beer, but before it arrived the patrons served up a round of blistering insults and mocking laughter. Some broke into a coarse rendition of 'Dixie'. He fled through the howls of laughter and a chant: Bull Run! Bull Run!"
