Another great entry Anhaga!
Just a couple of questions. In the paragraph "Fort Erie Again", you have "The Americans retreated north to the area of Fort Erie." Wouldn't that be south? And did you deliberately leave out a mention of Laura Secord? When I was learning Canadian history back in primary school she was made out to be a great Canadian heroine. It seems I heard in recent times that she was a military groupie with a somewhat dubious reputation, and perhaps didn't accomplish the heroics that were previously attributed to her.
