Besides, they weren't really fighting for much, Canada is probably more free and liberal then the US today, and its been under a British Monarchy since we kicked the French out during the American revolution.

The Patriot victory here almost ensured the defeat of the British as it signaled the failure of the British Southern strategy....Brig. General Daniel Morgan defeated British Lt. Colonel Banastre Tarleton. Morgan was a street wise leader that knew how to deploy the PATRIOT MILITIA lead by Militia General Andrew Pickens. The lower right picture depicts Calvery Commander William Washington, cousin of GW who at the end of the battle 40 British regulars of the 17th Light Dragoons still remained on the field. Tarleton led them and fourteen officers who also remained in an attempt to recover the artillery. Lt. Colonel Washington's cavalry intercepted his charge. Washington sighted Tarleton and ordered a charge and took off after Tarleton, but in the din of battle, his order was heard by only a few. He soon found himself in advance of his cavalry. Tarleton and several of his officers turned and engaged Washington. While engaged with one of the officers, Lt. Colonel Washington broke his saber at the hilt. As the officer prepared to deliver the killing blow, Washington's black body servant rode up and shot the officer in the shoulder. Another British officer swung at Washington, but Sergeant Major Perry parried the blow. Tarleton himself swung at Washington, but Washington blocked it with his broken sword. Tarleton then fired his pistol, but only managed to wound Washington's horse. Tarleton then fled the field. It was now 8:00 A.M. The battle had lasted one hour. The original painting is rather small and hangs in the SC State Capital on the 2nd floor hallway to the Chambers.....it shows the moment when Wm. Washington's black servant shoot's Tarleton.
