WAR OF 1812

To celebrate the War of 1812 bicentennial , The Institute partnered with Canadian Geographic, with the support of Parks Canada, to create an interactive map and timeline of the War of 1812. From Tecumseh to Laura Secord, the Battle of Fort George to the Burning of Washington - the website features over one hundred in depth articles on the battles, places and figures that featured prominently in the War of 1812. The interactive map and timeline highlight hundreds of important moments and locations in the War of 1812, and features images and video content. A learning resource page offers tools for teachers developed by The Institute, Canadian Geographic, and Parks Canada.
