Ummmm fellas, it was the British NOT the Canadians or French that burnt the Whitehouse out.... gutted it only so it was quickly redone. Guess they forgot enough matches.
And yep Quebec City held out for abit, but the Americans DID finally take it down. Better get your history books out. I'm from the generation that actually had to learn this sort of thing. Dunno if they even teach it now actually. Oh and it was mostly the FRENCH that held out in Canada. Not the Brits so much.
I note which flag flies over this country so trying to say y'all won is sort of silly isn't it?! A war is not won with but one battle.
