The Creation of Canada
-
After the Constitutional Act (1791) separated the colony into Upper Canada (southern Ontario) and Lower Canada (southern Québec), British Lord Durham was sent to solve the on-going problems between the English and French halves. He declared the Union Act of 1841, which fused the two sides under a single English-speaking parliament and effectively marginalized the French. By 1848, the English were forced to accept the use of French to avoid a backlash. On July 1, 1867, Québec and Ontario joined with Nova Scotia and New Brunswick to form the Dominion of Canada.
