The US was mad at Britain which caused the War of 1812. The British took American ship and cargo, they were forcing American sailors to work on their boats after seizing Ameri â¦ ca's. They were ignoring our neutrality with the war with France.he US knew that Britain could spare very few troops to defend Canada. One of the objectives of the US in starting the war of 1812 was to acquire Upper Canada and Lower Canada and annex them into the US. There was no interest in crossing the Atlantic to attack Britain, and there was little to be gained by doing so.
