Kaben, I suppose you are right--fighting to break free from a position beneath the foot of tyrannical colonial rule involved murder, and taking away land and resources from a cross-country British empire to establish an independent nation was theft.  If you're going to sling insults and generalizations rather than actually contribute to a debate, then you may be silent.

Why didn't Canada rebel, then?
Also... Canada resolved the issues with Britain peacefully.
