@cbctop_mirror The British and Canadian victory in the Battle of Queenston Heights did not end the #WarOf1812. #American invasion attempts in #Canada continued for two more years. The heroism of General Brock was certainly an inspiration of those who ‘filled the breach’.
For instance, the 104th Regiment of Foot *marched* to Ontario from New Brunswick during the unusually harsh winter of 1813 to repel #Americans in Kingston and again in #Niagara. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/104th_(New_Brunswick)_Regiment_of_Foot

@brian_gettler A refreshing take on the conflict is Alan Taylor's The Civil War of 1812. "In this North American civil war, brother fought brother in a borderland of mixed peoples." #Cdnhist #AmericanHistory #Warof1812 #Canada

I am reading Edward Tufte's incredible tome "Beautiful Evidence" and it connects my data nerd with my design nerd so well. It has me thinking about all kinds of ways evidence is designed in #SRE.
Searching for some online resources, I found what looks like an amazing course, and the whole syllabus is apparently in GitHub pages. Here's the one on the thing I learned about today, Charles-Joseph Minard's map of the War of 1812:

A little history, as told by the Arrogant Worms!
We burned the Whithouse one before, and we could do it again if need be. To my fellow Canucks, please enjoy this humourous reminder of our past exploits when our neighbours to the south decided to push our limits.
