They bought them from the Hudsons Bay Company and had other lands transferred to them from Britain. Of course it wasn't that easy as the people already there were not consulted. So Canada sent troops into the land to force the people to accept their rule and then left in place a paramilitary group called the NWMP to ensure Canadian rule was accepted.
