Dear You,
Hello, I am back in 2012 and it feels weird being here. After all those years being in the past, when I am finally rescued, it all feels like a dream.
Anyways, the War of 1812 ended with the Treaty of Ghent. It took five months to negotiate.Plus, the War had to end soon! I mean most of the that the Americans had to declare war on them are gone. The boundaries are back as they were and the forty-ninth parallel of latitude will be the border. Britain dropped its goal of First Nations territory and they (USA and Canada) would never use First Nations as allies in war again.
Of course, the British had punished the traitors in the Alien Act. It is quite cruel but they kind of deserved it. Of course people also got recognition for bravery and Laura Secord got a pension (yay! I always liked her chocolate!)
Now that I have nothing to blog about anymore, this will be my last post. I wanted to say goodbye and that I hoped you enjoyed reading this. It was the only thing from me going insane in the past.
Love
Catherine

ATTACK!!!
It has been a few months since I had updated but I am back!
Some full-scale battles took place during my absence and I feel I must tell you all about it! So now I will write an editorial that I would of written in one of my newspapers. Behold :
Editorial - Why the British will win the War
1812, the Americans call war onto Canada. The war has been intense and battles were fought hard. Even so, the British will obviously win the War. Why? Look at all of them most recent battles.
The Battle of Queenston Heights had been a very important victory for Britain. The Americans had started to invade Fort George on October 13. Major General Isaac Brock had been shot in the chest and his troops had to wait for reinforcements. Soon Major General Roger Sheaffe led the troops and militia. The Haudenosaunee had come to re rescue led by Ahyouwaighs aka John Brant. Together, the Americans withdrawn. Canada did not lose much and 958 Americans were captured and taken prisoner.
That is not Canada's only victory. On October the 25th, the Americans planned to invade Montreal. They wanted to cut off the supply line between Montreal and Kingston. The Americans had communicated and led themselves so badly, they shot and killed their own. They also overestimated the British force. Really, the American force outnumbered the British by eight times. Believing that they were outnumbered, they retreated.
This War will end very soon because at this rate, we will win this War very soon.
What? It's true!!! But I do hope for this War to end soon. All this murdering is KILLING me (no pun intended).
