This whole narrative about Canada burning down the WH is stupid shit.
Canada didn't even exist in 1812. People think it's "funny" or "cute". But, it's still legit disinformation.
Yup, prior to 1876, the Arctic Ocean extended all the way down to what is now the Canada-US border.
That being said, it was British troops sent from Britain itself that burned the White House, as opposed to the British troops stationed in Canada. We all know that. No need to get your panties in a twist.
They feel more secure when twisted. You should try it.
Did they just burn it down or did they loot it? Almost certain the Crown knows where some of our good stuff from way back is hid.
