The war was far more significant for Canada and their nationalism for, in the end, they held off the Americans and the war ended the American efforts to take over Canada as was attempted in that war and in the Revolutionary War.
The consensus big losers were the native Americans on both sides.

Other than a bunch of vigilante-like drunks from Detroit trying a farcical invasion during the Canadian's Patriot War in 1838 we have enjoyed peace ever since. Now the only drunks invading Windsor are 19 year-olds heading to Windsor's kiddie bars.
What a blessing of peace we enjoy when one remembers Sarajevo, Berlin and other hostilely divided cities.
