Notice something missing from this chronology of the American Revolution in a commemorative edition put out by Time magazine?
It jumps from August 1775 to January 1776, without mentioning the American invasion of the British colony of Canada, which began in September 1775 and ended in failure.
Canadians consume tremendous amounts of American culture, and with it the American version of history.
