Talk:Ontario (Maple Uprising)

Union Loyalists
The english speaking population of Canada was mostly made up of British Loyalists that fled persecution by the American Patriots. This is one reason why a lot of Canada's identity is that its "not American". They would likely go it alone rather than request annexation. If the US forcefully annexed it that would be one thing, but so soon after the American Revolution I doubt they would be like "Oh yeah, the country that tarred and feathered my uncle just for not agreeing to commit treason, we should join them".Oerwinde 05:37, September 12, 2011 (UTC)
