it contributed to british identy by showing that the british didn't do anything for the Americans, but that they did fight a lot for heir country. it didn't give the Americans a good view on the British, the Americans then saw them as power hungry fools that would do anything for wealth, while really, that is a very accurate representation of the Americans then, and now.

How did Canada become part of the British empire?

Canada became a country by the battle in the plains of Abraham and the war of 1812 the war was actually fought between Canada and the us. Canada was brave enough to expect the war and unfortunately the us crossed the boarder with out permission and Canada had a Chance to but the Canadian soldiers was bold enough not to . but after the war the Governor thought that Canada had really become independent and was ready to take on the position of becoming a independent country . but the war of 1812 and the battle in the plains of Abraham was just the event that led Canada to become a country . but the real event was the confederation or in other words the British signed the papers and it was final. It's tough to say when Canada really did become its own independent country. Although, technically it happened in 1867, when Britain signed the constitution act, releasing Canada from British rule, the country was not really recognized as independent for some 100 years later. Canada went through a lot of changes, with WWI/II, and accepting provinces into its range. A defining moment for Canada's independence, however, is the battle of Vimy Ridge, in which 4 Canadian corps defeated a German stronghold. 4 Victoria crosses were handed out to four Canadian soldiers as a result of that victory. There is a quote from one of the Canadians in that battle that goes something to the effect of "We went up the hill British Soldiers, and came down Canadians" Important correction: The battle of the Plains of Abraham (located just outside Quebec City), was fought on September 13 1759 between the British and the French. The US did not exist yet. It was a battle within the larger conflict known as the Seven Years War, but popularly referred to as the French and Indian war in US history. There were Americans in the battle as 6 companies of American Rangers fought with the British. There were Canadians in the battle as well, but they were part of the French force. It was a decisive battle because it set the stage for British dominance in what would eventually become Canada.

Why did slavery end in Canada?

Slavery in Canada was gradually abolished in the early 19th century due to a combination of factors, including growing anti-slavery movements, legal decisions, and the overall shift towards abolition internationally. As British colonies, Canada followed Britain's lead in abolishing slavery to align with the moral imperative against the institution. The Slavery Abolition Act of 1833 finally abolished slavery throughout the British Empire, including in Canada.
