as far as I know, its those same reasons.

But then again, I didn't take American History, and the General History courses are focused on Canadian history.




p.s. Sorry we lit your White House on fire.

I guess I'm being patriotically curious as 4th of July nears I am just curious what Canadian and British History says about us.

p.s. Sorry we threw all of you royalists and loyalists out of the country when we won :P

Originally posted by avikonen In the US, we raised to understand that we were oppressed and hit up with a ton of taxes to basically finance the British Empire.

In Canada, we were taught that Americans were too cheap to pay for taxes.

j/k...I don't remember studying the american revolution here, just read up on it...I think I do remember it being mentioned in the Canadian history books that Benedict Arnold was on our side hehe.
