Was Canada invited to join America in 1776 revolutionary war?

by helpmewith1776QCanad

Hello👋 I just created this Reddit account to ask this question. Usually my brother knows this kind of thing but he didn’t so he suggested I ask here.

Wasn’t Canada also a British colony in the new world? Why did the 13 colonies all team up to rebel but leave out the British colony just to the north of New York? Were they just not invited? Or did they turn down the invitation to stay with England?

Thank you for the help!

Much more could certainly be said, but I helped with a similar question here recently, and it was answered also by /u/enygma9753 over here and here
