Tecumseh did something that no other Native American had ever done before: he united all of the tribes and allied with Britain in an attempt to reclaim their land.


What outcome and significance did War of 1812 with US have for Canada?

The Canadians were still well armed from the 7 years war, and weren't ready to lose their independence after they gained it. They helped the British push the American troops not only out of Canada, but back so far, that as a show of force, after the British left, they marched down the streets of Washington, and burnt down the White House. From the on, the Canadians, with the british, have been the only countries ever to win a battle against the States.

What did Laura secord do that is so important to canada?

Laura Secord and her husband were both born in one of the British colonies that rebelled against Britain and formed the United States. The Secords remained loyal to the Crown, however, and moved to Canada. At no time did they ever consider themselves to be "Americans." British subjects they were born, British subjects they lived, and British subjects they died. They could not possibly have been Americans, because there was no such thing as the United States of America when they were born.
