This episode covers 1775 to 1815. In 1775, American rebels invade Canada, but the invasion fails when "les Canadians" refuse to take up arms against British rule. The mass migration of Loyalist refugees that follows creates an English-speaking Canada virtually overnight. In 1812, American invaders are fought to a stand-still at Queenston Heights and Chateauguay, setting boundaries that remain today.
