"The only reason the USA doesn't also own all of Canada is that the British Army fought well enough in 1812-14 to prevent them from taking Canada. Britain was the world superpower in those days, and had a very efficient army and navy, so the Americans failed to take Canada. It was the only expansionist war that the USA has not managed to win...except for Vietnam. All I can say is, thanks to Great Britain for being there when we needed them!" Come on Little Hawk. Not one word of thanks for the man who led the resistance and gave his life for YOUR country when the British commander, General Proctor ran away. He was an Ohio boy named Tecumseh.
