we werent really taught anything at all on the american revolution. we were taught a lot about great britain and our alleigance to the queen.

we did a lot about the ANZACS and australian history, and great britain fell within that context.

i guess everyone teaches what is important to them. i guess canada would teach more US history due to proximity to the states, in the same way that we were taught about sth east asian issues.

with the changing political climate, im guessing that the US coverage would be much bigger now than it was back then
