Interesting thing to come up in today: what would a regular person (not a politician or a journalist) have called Canada back when Laura Secord was around?

I can't find a lot of references in non-journalistic material written at the time to "Upper Canada."
Some research:

Lucky mammals." - Trip of the Dead
