Remember the War of 1812!

Good, wholesome, uplifting folk music from Canada, commemorating that time they totally kicked America's ass when it tried to invade. That second time, actually. The Yankees tried it once before during the Revolution, and that didn't go so well either. But I can't find any songs about it.

Are the Canadians the only people on Earth to have beaten the tar out of a US invasion twice? They're a scrappy bunch. Their obesity rate is only half the US's. When they're all hopped up on maple syrup they have the strength of a hundred beavers and can chew through solid oak. They can regenerate severed limbs using the power of socialism, and their thick, sturdy dollar is bigger than ours. Never underestimate them.
