the War of 1812, when we fought for our sovereignty
Wow, the Canadian version of this must be quite different from the version American schoolchildren are taught.
In our rendition, Canada had no sovereignty in 1812, or anything resembling it. You were an English colony, and didn't have so much as your own prime minister for another fifty years.
This (in our rendition) is why America invaded Canada: it was the local version of England. We were tired of your country (England) sticking its nose in our trade practices and impressing our sailors into your military.
