The War of 1812 200th Anniversary

This is your home for the Southern Georgian Bay War of 1812 Region.
For the next three years (2012 through 2014), we will bring you the events, activities, locations and information needed to help you commemorate the war that defined Canadians as Canadians.
Bookmark this website or follow us on Twitter, Facebook and read our blogs (the 21st century version of 19th century journal) as the days unfold.

Visit our Historic Sites to experience the history that helped shape this country or enjoy an afternoon pic-nic and relive your own, simpler way of life. View the video for sampling of the events and the importance of this Bicentennial.
