Canadian Forces Continued War of 1812 Commemoration Until This Week

From the Feb. 18. 2015, Ottawa Citizen by David Fugliese.

Canada's Conservative Government spent $30 million on the commemoration of the war, but that officially ended in 1813.  Even with that amount spent, most Canadians paid little attention to the war.

The Canadian Forces (name given to Canada's military), however commemorated the war until Feb. 16, 2015, by wearing War of 1812 pins on their uniforms.

I suppose they have now been removed.
