"First of all, the war forced the British government to treat the United States with greater respect. The Royal Navy eventually, I think it was around 1817 or 1818. Finally did end the practice of impressment, although they never formally renounced the policy. They just quit doing it. They didn't need to. For the rest of the century, Britain worked hard to maintain good relations with the U.S.. And in fact, as everyone probably knows, that's the last time we ever had a war with Britain. In Canada, the war fostered a new sense of unity among the many groups of people there. Donald Hickey writes this quote the war of 1812 was the closest thing that Canada has had to a war of independence or a Civil War. The war gave birth to heroes, myths and legends that persist to this day. Taylor Allen Taylor, who's the author of a great book called the Civil War of 1812, writes this quote formerly negligible in local mines, the border became a powerful divide, separating recent enemies committed to rival governments. So in other words, there's kind of a rise in the idea of Canadian nationhood Canadian nationalism. South of the Canadian board of the U.S. emerged with a new sense of national pride and purpose. It also gained part of Spanish west Florida, including the key city of Pensacola. Now, what about for the Indians? Sadly, as is often the case, the war for them was devastating. They lost a great deal of land in their power in the old northwest was broken. As Donald Hickey writes, quote, never again with Indian seriously threatened the United States. Never again with a foreign nation tamper with American Indians. The Americans breaking of Indian power, promoted the sense of manifest destiny. The war also had many long-lasting cultural effects. Saying such as, don't give up the ship. And we have met the enemy and there are said lasted right down to the present. Also, The Star-Spangled Banner, which was originally a poem written by Francis Scott Key, who was being held temporarily as a prisoner on a British warship during the British bombardment of fort mchenry, which we didn't talk about, but is important just the same. The Star-Spangled Banner became a popular American anthem, and of course it was eventually made the official national anthem in 1931, much to the chagrin of people who can't sing very well. It's a hard one. There's some high notes in there. Yeah, it gets up there. It's got a lot of range. The flag that flew at fort mchenry became one of the nation's most treasured relics and Uncle Sam made his first appearance. So, as again, I'm going to quote Donald Hickey again. And a broad sense the war of 1812 transformed the cultural landscape, helping Americans understand who they were and where their nation was headed. Okay, now let's talk about politically, especially with president Madison and the federal government. The war changed president Madison's view of the role of government. If you know your U.S. history and I know you do listeners, Madison was originally part of the Jeffersonian wing. He was part of the Republicans. Sometimes democratic Republican Party and they believed in very small government, very limited spending, small army small navy, they were the original penny pinchers. But the war changed his opinion.

"Hall on your left. And you've Alfred Charlie Coyle, who looks great at the bruins game, by the way. It's not the pros game. The Red Sox game, by the way. It looks great. The bruins game, huh, Charlie Coyle. Him and mcavoy being there, along with you against the Yankees on Tuesday night now. Together. Yes, all blending together at this point. I also liked how when they were on camera at the Red Sox, I think you could see coil kind of mouth to his girlfriend like we're on camera right now. Yeah, this is what we're on camera. Don't do anything to do, but because that camera will be there for a while. So but anyways, yeah, back to hockey. But Charlie quill, I thought looked great. And I think this is, again, we've both said this. If you can just get 40 to 50 points out of him this year, if he could just be productive, if he can just kind of usher along or kind of go along with Taylor Allen and Craig Smith, that line could work together really well. And also we saw it on Taylor hall's goal. On Wednesday night where Craig Smith takes his normal Craig Smith shot from the right boards and they successfully break it out and haul drives the net hard. I'm wondering for you, how can a guy like Taylor home get the most out of Charlie Coyle and Craig Smith? Yeah, I think as you said on that goal was a great example of just how having hauling that line adds a quick strike element where, you know, with his speed and his ability to move in transition, kind of makes a goal happen out of nothing, right? Seem like almost like a harmless play. Like, wasn't even like a goal that Omar gave, I guess, so you had that kick save in a one way out to the slot. That was a kind of a loose puck that literally hauled his bead van and check two, like right there right out of the doorstep. So in terms of that quick strike ability haul adds to that. But I think with coil, especially.
