Mind you that in the late 18th century many Canadians wanted to free themselves of the British yoke as well. However, the loss of the American colonies led to an increased British military presence in Canada (1 soldier for every 5000 settlers) which made rebellion practically impossible. One rebellion led to the hanging of all the leaders and they never attempted to revolt again. Since then, they've been brainwashed into thinking this was best for them and that Americans are a bunch of unrestrained morons.
