I just visited Fort George yesterday, even though it's closed for the winter so none of the staff were there and all the buildings were closed. It's a remarkable feeling to look over the river and across to the US from atop the earthworks. While the current fort is a 1930s reconstruction, much remains, including a marker over Brock's initial burial site and many abandoned canons. It was fun looking through the gun-holes in the picketing! I'm so proud of that part of our history.
Issac Brock was actually leading the Soldiers , as he is marching forwarding and a gunshot was heard , he took a shot above the right limb and went through his chest that causes him to fall , 3 man were dragging him to cover as Canadians and Britain’s were charging.
+Alan Herderson Fair point. Technically, Canada didn't even exist as a distinct political entity until July 1, 1868, when the British colonies federated, forming the Canadian Confederation. Even then it remained part of the British Empire unti the ratification of the Statute of Westminster on December 11, 1931, when it became independant.
Well it actually gained its independence on July 1st. But Canada was called Canada not as colonies the name it held was The dominion of Canada but technically it was a British Colony.

@@johnkaminsky1657 the war was never over Canada. In fact that’s an old war myth. The only way the USA could hurt Britain was in her North American colonies since the Royal Navy outnumbered the us navy 20:1. Plus with all due respect to Brock but how did he save Canada?
@@TheIceman567 Never said he "saved Canada". Brock was a mere rallying point, a much needed hero for forces that were drastically outnumbered and made up largely of militia. It was actually Scheaffe who carried the day at Queenston, but there is little emphasis on that. Brock's most notable victories could be brought down to sheer luck in some cases and the result of incompetence on the part of his American counterparts in others whose leadership was made up of largely ineffective old-guard fighters from the revolutionary war who found themselves in their respective roles as the consequence of political favours. Fact is, he was audacious, became a folk hero and was revered by both sides.

Sir Issac Brock was born in Guernsey (the channel Islands) which isn't in the UK, its a crown dependency and is fully autonomous. I know, I'm from Guernsey. Also on a side note Guernsey people aren't English, we are former Norman french people who to keep it simple "became" British but that doesn't make us English."George Prevost" is a Guernsey fFench/Norman name and isn't pronounced "prev-ost" or "pre-vost" its "prev-o" and would have originally been "Le Prevost" which is still a very common name in Guernsey and Normandy.Its funny that Sir Issac brock being from Guernsey worked under George Prevost who wasn't even from Guernsey but has an iconic Norman/Guernsey french name which is extremely uncommon outside of Guernsey, Guernsey only has 65,000 people now even less then so what are the chances. If you have any questions about Guernsey then feel free to ask, Knowledge is power folks :)
"Brock was born at St Peter Port on the Channel Island of Guernsey, the eighth son of John Brock (1729-1777)" I said he was born in Guernsey, I never said he was proper Guernsey.
Autonomous or not, it is still part of Britain. Autonomy isn't the same as independence. It is a Crown Dependency. Since it is autonomous, it enjoys greater self-rule then most British territories, but Britain still controls the military defense and the majority of foreign relations, which means it isn't truly independent like a state with a Compact of Free Association.
Firstly it isn't part of Britain, Britain is a geographical term not a political one, perhaps you mean the UK? TO which we are not part either. We are part of the British Isles but that is as close as we get to being part of either the UK or Britain. As for defense, they are not in charge of it, every year the Ministry of defense come to the states of Guernsey and ask for £50 million for protection in case of war, we are not bound to accept it. As for foreign relations once again its up to us what they handle and what they don't. Being an international finance center we have good relations with most major countries in the world and represent ourselves as we have vastly different needs to the UK government.
We beat Americans with few soldiers as busy freeing Europe from Napoleon which was the main priority. Americans as usual brilliant at PR but basically were helping a jumped up dictator in Napoleon, so much for liberal values. But we beat French and burnt White House as side show. Canadians are consistent and loyal
Not true at all the USA had nothing to do with Napoleon. The war was over impressment and orders in council. Canadians are loyal ? most (58%)want a republic after the queen dies in a poll done in February. Plus the USA has more control over canada today. Sorry but the war ended in a stalemate.
@@TheIceman567 really republic after her majesty,s death we'll see about that it's nothing more then delusions of grandeur anyway. nobody has the courage to touch the constitution it's political suicide and might end up breaking up Canada into pieces which is not worth the cost and stalemate keep telling yourself that if you say it enough times you can possibly believe that in your heart yank. you know very well a full fledged war between the British empire and USA would have meant anhilation america would have ceased to exist without the french empire. you would have never got your independence without the french and even Spanish empire to some extent anyway in the first place place. lastly whether you like it or not prince Charles or prince William will succeed the throne of Canada.🇨🇦👑

Not always. In the end, the natives list the Indian Wars. Plus, we have achieved some things through working together with the Native Americans. The Apache, were also invaluable allies. Their warriors and their descendants have made invaluable contributions to the Armed Forces. Even during the War of 1812, when most tribes sided with the British, the Inited States benefitted from the aid of some tribes. The Cherokee, who had sided with the British during the American Revolutionary War, sided with the United States in the War of 1812, as did the Choctaw and part of the Creek tribe. They mostly fought tribes allied with the British, rather than the British themselves, so Canadians wouldn't be familiar with that part of the war.
Not really a big deal at all. Britain was a very powerful country back then. Armed and ready to fight. British North America 🇬🇧 Good job though. Looks like it was the First Nations that made the difference. Typical 😮
They should not have things named for Brock they should be named for Aaron Burr, because if he had not killed Alexander Hamilton Canada would have been lost to the USA in 1812.

Brock must have pissed off someone above him or he wouldn't have been in Canada at all. It wasn't a glamour posting. He probably hated the place. I am sure he had no intention of getting killed. It's not like he gave his life, it was taken from him. I am sure he expected to go back to England with honours and glories that would advance his army career. Let us not forget all the ordinary men and women that were also killed in a useless war who literally had no choice to be in it. Why do we always glamourize the aristocracy and the rich. Magellan was the first to sail around the world.....by himself? Columbus discovered North America (after the natives)....oh he sailed here by himself?
