	Invasion of Canada (1775) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Invasion of Canada in 1775 was the first major military initiative by the United States during the American Revolutionary War.
		In 1776, British forces in Canada were strengthened by troops under General John Burgoyne and Hessian mercenaries.
		The invasion of Canada ended as a disaster for the Americans, but Arnold's improvised navy on Lake Champlain had the effect of delaying a full-scale British counter thrust until the Saratoga campaign of 1777.

	Military history of Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Canada was colonized by two major European powers that were historically at odds with each other, and it was inevitable that this age-old tension would spill over into Canada; during the 17th and 18th centuries, there was almost continuous conflict between the colonizing powers in Canada.
		The Lower Canada Rebellion was a greater threat to the British, and the rebels were victorious at the Battle of St. Denis on November 23.
		Canada also chose to stay out of several wars, despite the participation of close allies, most notably the Vietnam War and the Second Iraq War, although Canada lent indirect support and Canadians citizens served in foreign armies in both conflicts.
