From the site strikor posted...

"The United States declared War on Great Britain on June 12, 1812. The war was declared as a result of long simmering disputes with Great Britian. The central dispute surrounded the impressment of American soldiers by the British. The British had previously attacked the USS Chesapeake and nearly caused a war two year earlier. In addition, disputes continued with Great Britain over the Northwest Territories and the border with Canada. Finally, the attempts of Great Britain to impose a blockade on France during the Napoleonic Wars was a constant source of conflict with the United States."

Ok, why in the hell does everyone say the "Canadians" set the White House on fire??

First off, it was the British who invaded Maryland and captured the White House and set it afire.

Another thing, we didn't invade "Canada". Well, we did, but we were aiming to destroy the British, NOT the Canadians. Which both were pretty much the same.

Well, I find it interesting that Australia & New Zealand would have been sent to Canada's aid if the U.S invaded.
