A large number of Michigan men avoided the draft by crossing the Detoit River and staying in Windsor. The British government stated they should leave or all would be forced to enlist in the Britiah Army. Did the British government have the right to do this?
I am not sure they could force the enlistment of Americans. Was there a limit to how long an American could "visit" Canada before they were force to become a British subject?
