The End of the War

Both the Americans and the British were tired of battling by the end of the year, 1814. There really was no winner of the war. On Christmas Eve of 1814 both sides signed a peace treaty. The war was over. Everything was back to the way it was before the war had started and the Canadians were able to keep their land. If this wasn't the case Canada wouldn't have the Canadian flag and Canadian school children wouldn't be learning about Canadian history such as this.
