"We Didn't Start It..."

From the March 25th Spec "The War of 1812: Our War" by Jon Wells.

"We didn't start it, but the War of 1812...was Canada's war, even if it was an event with global implications."

General Isaac Brock (the first name in my sign-off) has a huge monument, 185 feet high, at Queenstown heights (where he was killed in battle).  A plaque says his remains are in a vault at the base of it.

The first monument to him at the sit, was dynamited in 1840 by terrorists.  (Now this has to be a good story.)  It was rebuilt in 1852, even taller than its predecessor.

The bottom line for Canadians, is that the border with the United States remained the same as before.

It's a Canadian Thing.  --Brock-Perry
