March 19, 1813

     Breaking news everyone! We have just gotten news that Tecumseh, chief of the Shawnee people, has just been killed by the Americans near the town of Chatham. The Americans have indeed won the battle, but the Brits are not letting their guard down.
We thank Tecumseh for his help in the war against the Americans, and for his much needed support. As you know, he joined forces with the British because of a little conflict back in 1809. The First Nations in Indiana sold the United States 10 000 square feet of land. Tecumseh did not agree to this, and he got even more furious in 1811 when the Americans attacked some Shawnee villages.
The great chief has now passed away, and we should all take a minute to say thanks. R.I.P. Chief Tecumseh.


     We will also take this time to remember Sir Isaac Brock, who also passed away last year. He was a great leader, and we thank him for his dedication to supporting British North America. As you know, he got shot by an American sniper in October of 1812, when he was leading his troops to recapture Queenston Heights.
We will always remember Sir Isaac Brock, a hero to all of us.
R.I.P. Sir Isaac Brock.



     Another important contributor to British North America was Laura Secord. She took life threatening risks to deliver some very important information to Lieutenant James Fitzgibbon. In around June of last year, Laura was spying on the Americans, while they were developing a crucial battle plan at Beaver Dam. She decided it was important to tell the Lieutenant, who was defending the area around the Dam, which was 30 km away. She snuck past the Americans, and in the end it payed off.
Thank you Laura.
