Of course there was. I will spare the history lesson this time ;) however you still get a summery ;D
Canada has been Canada for over 400 years, we were just a British province at the time and Quebec (earlier known as New France) a province of France (but by this time taken by the British in a treaty) as opposed to a country and we established our independence in 1867, we were still Canadians, ownership changed, nothing more.
LOl or do you think in 1866 no one lived here and in 1867 everyone spontaneously just moved in, lol :D

British troops called Canadians burned down the White House and the people of 1812 are the same Canadians as 1867, nothing changed but the ownership. Yes a British province but we are Canadians, man I love Canada, but also respect Great Britain as we are still a Colony to this day.

The history of Canada dates back to the arrival of Paleo-Indians, and its territory has been inhabited by Aboriginal peoples for millennia. However, it was only in 1867 when Canada became a unified nation under the name Dominion of Canada.
Canada was under British rule during the period of 1763 – 1867. The Treaty of Paris was signed in 1763 and under it, France ceded a large portion of its territory in present day Canada. The British rulers protected the political, religious, and social culture and property of the French-speaking habitants. In 1837, rebels in Lower and Upper Canada took up arms and fought skirmishes against the British authorities. Skirmishes took place around Hamilton, London, and Toronto, but they were of small scale and ultimately unsuccessful. A more substantial rebellion took place in Lower Canada where French- and English-Canadian rebels fought skirmishes against the British colonial government.
Canada officially became The Dominion of Canada on July 1, 1867. The formation of the Dominion of Canada was the result of the Charlottetown Conference and Quebec Conference. The Seventy-Two Resolutions established the framework under which the North American colonies of Great Britain would be unified into a federation. The resolutions were adopted by most Canadian provinces and became the basis for the London Conference, which took place in 1866. Sixteen delegates from New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and the Province of Canada gathered with British officials to draft the British North America Act of 1867. This conference was the last of the series of conferences of the Confederation. Sir John. A. MacDonald became the first Prime Minister.

Judging by that nonsense the irish didn't exist until the 1920's. ::)
The 1867 thing was the formation a political structure nothing more, canada technically didn't even gain independence from the british empire until 1982. Canada was settled much earlier than 1867, at the lastest my last ancestor left europe in 1798.
The british owned everything under the sun at some point including the US.
Anyhow it's the first foreign war they ever fought, and they lost bitches.

actually, america has never won a jungle war, but kicks ass in flat-land wars, because of technology. maybe you should have been on an iraq transport when they were bombing the fuck out of them on highways.

they've murdered hundreds of thousands of civilians from many different countries and have declared victory many times...
yet their territory has never expanded through conflict... winning a war is about territorial expansion
america has only grown through acquisition (e.g. alaska)
even from an economic perspective americant has been shrinking it's portion of the globe's GDP for almost 30 years

Who told you that? winning a war can have many different rewards and expansion of territory is only one of them. In this age that is not even important at all, America does not want anymore land,it wants control over other nations lands.
