the Revolutionary War, when they held off Benedict Arnold's ragtag army at Quebec. 1. THAT wasn't the United States. It didn't exist then. 2. Since when does beating a traitor count? The two main reasons for entering the war was to annex Canada and get some of the loot from Napoleon's inevitable victory. WAIT A MINUTE! My history book said that war had to do with the British kidnapping American sailors on the high seas. Our guys burnt up what eventually became Toronto, OK. So we won that encounter. but pretty much ran away back home after that. OK. So were the Canucks chasing him?
