Chicago Tribune (June 18)
“June 18 marks the 200th anniversary of the beginning of the War of 1812, a conflict that may well be the last time most Americans thought seriously about Canada…. Awareness of Canada in general among Americans fails to register beyond a vague, favorable glow. But given the importance of Canada to the United States, thinking about it once every 200 years would seem to be justified.”
