I have family that fought in this war, as well as the Battle of New Orleans and Chalmette battles in the 1800s.

Read and learn, canadians didnt do a damn thing.
Hey Fletch,

I decide to go read and learn more, as I truthfully never looked into the matter of the Whitehouse being burned down in August of 1814... So I decide to check into it... I couldn't find any sources mentioning "Canadians" burned down the Whitehouse, though then I thought to myself, what/who were "Canadians" in 1814 ... and the only conclusion I can come to is to, for the most part, the British. So in essence, it was the Canadians who burned down the Whitehouse.

Cheers,
Matt
