Ugh. I could do without Carney spouting the Harper government's absurd tale of the origins of modern Canada in the War of 1812, complete with the starring multicultural paint-by-numbers cast of Brock, De Salaberry, and Tecumseh (sorry, Laura Secord, this time around it's a boys-only club).

@brian_gettler A refreshing take on the conflict is Alan Taylor's The Civil War of 1812. "In this North American civil war, brother fought brother in a borderland of mixed peoples." #Cdnhist #AmericanHistory #Warof1812 #Canada
