You can call whatever you want, and you may not like some of the
reactions you'll get, but if you do search on Google, the only Three

Well, my grandfather managed a paper mill in Three Rivers, Quebec from
1918
to 1923, and my aunt was born in Three Rivers, Quebec, in 1920!

Come on, now, folks, after what you did to my Nurse ancestors, we're
entitled to Anglify Trois Riveres.

Yours,
Dora Smith
Austin, TX
