This treaty, signed on December 24, 1814, ended the War of 1812, fought between Great Britain and the United States. In 1814, both sides were working to come to a resolution and agreed to discuss peace terms. A meeting in Belgium of American delegates and British commissioners ended with the signing of the Treaty of Ghent on December 24, 1814. Great Britain agreed to relinquish claims to the Northwest Territory, and both countries pledged to work toward ending the slave trade. The United States, in turn, gained influence as a foreign power.

Many of the most widely celebrated Canadian holidays are nearly identical to their American versions, including New Year's, Valentine's Day, Easter, Halloween and Christmas. But there are a handful of uniquely Canadian holidays that non-Canucks have probably never heard of, yet offer a fascinating glimpse into Canadian history and culture." HowStuffWorks.com
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCBKTnTR02s Jun 14, 2012 The War of 1812 was a dramatic event in Canadian history. But what was at stake, and who won? We invited David Jacobson, United States Ambassador to Canada, to say a few words on his country's perspective of the War of 1812.
The exhibition 1812 at the Canadian War Museum reveals that the answer to this question depends on perspective. The exhibition takes a unique approach, exploring the war through the eyes of the four main participants: Canadians (including Canadian First Peoples), Americans, the British, and Native Americans.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iL-dGrHe_x8 Sep 20, 2023 The Canadian story of the American Civil War, told in two parts. Through the eyes of the Canadians who helped start the war, to those who fought it, to the leaders influenced by it, we unravel one of the most pivotal events in the continent's history. From the pubs of Saint John to the docks of Halifax, from Southern Ontario battlefields to the battlements of Quebec City, find out which Canadians were on the right and wrong sides of history. This is the story of two nations facing each other down over a tenuous border for a century, and the war that changed everything. Canadiana
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KzwgqwqKqfQ Jan 5, 2023 The story behind one of Canada's most famous highways...and how it was built by a foreign army. From the Rocky Mountain foothills, all the way to Alaska—we take a road trip finding clues to its origins: rusted old trucks, strange-looking buildings, and abandoned gravel roads. This is the tale of the largest American invasion into Canada since the Gold Rush. This is the Alaska Highway. The first thing we want to mention is that the Alaska Highway originally had a far less American-centric name: the Alcan Highway (Alaska-Canada). In the same way Canol Road comes from “Canada-Oil.” We much prefer the Alcan since the majority of the highway is, ya know, in Canada. One of the central reasons Whitehorse became the capital of the Yukon (in 1953) is because of the boom it experienced during the construction—dethroning Dawson City! We wished we had the time to drive up Canol Road when we filmed the episode. The disaster caused by its construction is STILL being dealt with today. Here’s an article about the cleanup from July 2022: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/canol-trail-cleanup-1.6527710 By the time the Alaska Highway was built, many Yukon communities still weren't widely accessible by road. However, there is at least one notable exception: the village of Teslin (Desleen), YK. It was all thanks to a multi-talented man named George Johnston. Johnston was a Tlingit photographer and entrepreneur. As a successful trapper, he used some of his earnings to purchase photography equipment, which he then used to document his vibrant community in some of the best Depression-era photography out there—particularly during the years leading up to WWII (a couple of these photos can be seen in the episode).
