What did the Boer war and the Alaska boundary dispute have in common?
They both involved Canada and Britain. In the Boer war, Britain wanted Canada to send troops to help them out. Wilfred Laurier, the prime minister of Canada, as a compromise to the imperialists and the nationalists in the country, decided to send one thousand volunteer troops. In the Alaska Boundary Dispute between Canada and the United States, Britain chose two Canadians and one British judge. The deciding voter, the British Lord Alverstone, chose to move the US border closer to the coastline, but not close enough for Canada to have control over the Lynn canal. Canadians were unhappy with the result.

Canada was a dominion of Great Britain, so some of the troops sent by the British to Africa were from Canada. There were also Irish troops and, I think, Australian and New Zealand troops as well. The British were having a difficulty time fighting the Boers so they eventually sent more troops which might be why Canadians had to go. Or maybe they just had to go.
Why was Polk willing to risk war over California but not Oregon?
Because of money... Polk knew that California was needed as a way to monopolize trade with Asia and soon after the annexation of Texas and Mexican-American War was won this problem was solved but, both nations the United States and the United Kingdom claimed the Oregon region based on earlier exploration and the"right of discovery", described as "joint occupancy," making any resolution of the territorial and treaty issues until a later time. However later failed to settle upon a compromise boundary because British wanted to keep their fur trade South of the Columbia River for their powerful/profitable trading companies and the Oregon Dispute became important between the British Empire and the new American Republic. It was urged by the Democratic party for Polk to negotiate a boundary with the British because of "Manifest Destiny" era of the US. Polk accepted a compromise along the 49th parallel and it is still the boundary between the United States and Canada today..
