Its funny how easily americans forget about there losses. War of 1812. Us > You.
We had tons of the northern states, including The White House, which we gave back to you to white wash.
I am so sick of every American saying they've won every war, blah blah blah, they're the best, blah blah blah, it was only them fighting in World war two, blah blah blah.
Actually, and that's pretty weird because we went over our past wars in History class just yesterday, and if I was actually listening correctly, I heard this:
The War of 1812 was started (and it was very humiliating for us in the beginning) due to the britans hijacking our ships and making our sailors work on their boats, eventually we got tired of it and declared war, thing is that mainly, neither side won, because we both came to an agreement without many loses on either side, but many Americans to this day still consider it our victory, because we didn't lose. Mainly it was a draw however, just that the fact that it was finally over with, is why most Americans look at it as a victory.
What the hell... and what did I tell you? You must've won every war you've faught in, just because your America.
Blaze: Canada was founded by the French originally, not the Britans.
No it wasn't.... Our country was founded when we asked Britian for independance and them saying yes, rather than just doing it yourself and starting more wars... which seems to be a past time for your current president, but thats another story...
Also, we never said and never will say we were the only ones fighting in WW2, google is your friend.
I never said you did, but whenever I get into the discussions, I seem to find the most patriotic people, ever.
3. So they technically didn't GIVE it back.
Yes they did. We took Washington D.C., your capitol, http://www.multied.com/1812/Washington.html.
1. Rofl, would you read what you said before for fucks sake? I just gave you two people right off the top of my head who don't beleive America actually won the war of 1812, me and my teacher, so saying "every American" is complete bullshit.
2. Canada was originally found by the French, who came over while American colonies were being founded, the French took Canada.
And where the fuck does our president come into leaving Britan? He's barely even 60 years old, he had nothing to do with the 13 colonies. Why in the fuck should we ask another country for land that we found? That's plain stupid, amd Britan started that war with us, not the other way around. We left for
RELIGIOUS FREEDOM, which we proudly now have.

Would you fucking read your past posts? Or atleast try and remember what you said in them before arguing?
4. Once again, read iago's post ffs, if they burned it down, they weren't GIVING the White House back, they burned it down, therefore no White House.
You two don't even live here, no right to insult, none at all.
I'm tired of arguing over this stupid topic, with people not even from this country, infact this isn't even on-topic in the first place.
So I'm done, good luck to anyone else who feels like trying to point out to a Canadian that not the whole US is like Miami.
