Now, for extra credit, who won the War of 1812?
Well obviously not the Americans or we wouldn't be a separate country now, would we?
From CBC's pages about their documentary of Canadian History (A People's History):
"The mass migration of Loyalists that follows [the American Revolution] - more than 40,000 people in all - creates an English-speaking Canada virtually overnight. Over the next 30 years, the colony continues to develop. When the next American invaders arrive in 1812, they are fought to a stand-still at the battles of Queenston Heights, Chateauguay and Lundy's Lane, setting boundaries that remain today. "
