Major General Isaac Brock, his thoughts on General William Hull's proclamation & the Defence of Canada
When the war of 1812 first started, Isaac Brock was the administrator and major general of upper Canada. For quite a few years, Major General Isaac Brock was asking the British Government for a command in Europe. He really wanted to join the fight against Monsieur Napoleon Bonaparte. But soon after, when war broke out with the Americans, he was determined to stay and defend the colony.
However, Brock still was concerned about Napoleon. His concern showed in his response to General William Hull's proclamation, ( another Proclamation, written by Isaac Brock).
In his Proclamation, he sought out to remind people of how good the benefits are under British Rule.
He touched at the dangers of siding with Americans. He also suggested that if Britain was to lose the war, America may be able to repay their debt by returning Canada to the French.
