My Opinion on the Question (How do you think the war of 1812 moulded Canadian identity?)

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion, the war of 1812 did not have much of an effect on housing or dress styles. Those only changed because of the times changing. What the war did do was cause a growing sense of Canadian national identity. If that didn't happen, Canada probably wouldn't be as independent as it is now.

There were mostly townhouses - two stories high - after the war. In cities, there were also tenements and apartments.

The typical urban house had red-brick masonry. Wood was the dominant building material. However, on the prairies, where wood was scarce, the houses were made of sod.

The First Nations were very deeply involved in the war. The First Nations sided with the British. The British offered the First Nations promises of a homeland, and protection of First Nations' territories.

First of all, there was professional attire, which was a black suit. There were also waistcoats and vests. For leisure and sports, men would wear breeches or knickers. For clubs, there was ceremonial attire, like ribbons and gowns. Finally, there were accessories, like a tie, pocket watch, cravat, stock, detachable collar, top hat, and greatcoat. It was customary to dress little boys in dresses and skirts with wide-brimmed hats ad long hair like their sisters. When the boy became 6, 7 or 8 he would wear his first pair of long pants, and get his first haircut.

Women would wear undergarments like corsets and bustles. The dresses were wide with gigot style sleeves. Since the skirts were so wide, women would also wear shawls to easily drape over themselves. The final touch was a hat. This was a different shape and size for every woman. When young girls got to the age of 5 or 6, they would wear corsets, but skirts slightly shorter than full-grown women. This was to accommodate for a more active lifestyle. There were also special gowns for baptisms.

A popular style for men was flowers on their coats, with hessian boots and a tall hat. Young boys would also wear this, and basically looked like exact copies of their fathers.

A popular womens' style was the empire silhouette, along with silk and neoclassical dresses. Young girls' styles followed the same pattern, their waistlines also going up. Here is a picture of what the empire silhouette looks like:
