Canadians.. phooey. the Brits burned the thing in 1814. there might have been a few Canadians along for the ride, but the way i hear it, they were too drunk to participate. hell, i dont even think canada was an independant country then. Proudest moment in Canadian history, sheesh. I think you guys would be more proud of your astounding performance in WWI rather than your minor involvement in the burning of a city that you didn't have all that much to do with.

my history isnt the best though, because the incident i was thinking of when was washington burned for the second time in 1864, it was actually Washington, NC. heck, for all I know, the Canadians could be responsible for that one too. chalk up the 1989 earthquake to them, too.

ah well, if its any consolation, we set the roof on fire in the 1920s. i dont think there was so much sacking involved for that, though.
