They extend the U.S. northeast up to the border of the St. Lawrence River. I'm surprised America didn't conquer that region IOTL.
At the very least, I saw them getting the Ontario Peninsula and the northern shore of Lake Superior. Perhaps also concessions regarding the Pacific coast and Maine's borders. Britain gets to keep the French-speaking Quebec and Gaelic speaking Acadia.
All this is quite theoretical since in this age the Royal Navy has the means to turn to ashes any US coastal city. So even if the US army had had the advantage on the continent (which they were far from), Britain has the means to reestablish balance and force a status-quo treaty.
Yes. There is this very good reason : if their main coastal cities are destroyed, they are no longer able to sustain a war and to keep whatever conquest in Canada (if they ever were able to conquer any canadian territory, which was not the case in OTL).
You have the right to be a US nationalist expansionist. But the point in this forum is also about being realistic.
The US in 1812 can not conquer Canada if you don't fulfill the condition of some kind of meltdown of the british power.
What land does the U.S. get from winning the war of 1812 .
That's a bit of an exaggeration; they quite famously failed to take Baltimore (to say nothing of New Orleans) when they tried, and other cities have similar fortifications. And of course, the British would have to actually be sufficiently interested in such a campaign to do so; Canada is not that important.All this is quite theoretical since in this age the Royal Navy has the means to turn to ashes any US coastal city.
It really does depend on what happens, exactly. Reminding me of a scenario I've thought about doing recently, I can *possibly* see the U.S. taking much of the southwest Peninsula in Ontario(including today's "Golden Horseshoe" area), but it would be rather costly for us Yanks and we'd probably suffer a bloodbath or two just holding on to it, at least until the fighting ends.
In fact, we might even have to let Britain take a certain few parts of the Northwest Territory(namely, the UP of Michigan & northern Wisconsin, including the Iron Range in what was to be Minnesota IOTL) especially if they and their Native allies still end up being in control of those areas as in OTL.

But a major American victory probably requires the Napoleonic Wars to go on longer, anyway.
