Seventh province to join confederation of Canada?
Prince Edward Island (PEI) became the seventh province, but only three provinces have actually 'joined' Confederation. The British Parliament created Canada by the British North America (BNA) Act. The BNA Act created two provinces out of the pre-Confederation Province of Canada (Ontario and Quebec) and united them with New Brunswick and Nova Scotia as the four original provinces. None of the original four actually 'joined,' so none can claim to be 'first.' The BNA Act provided for the Parliament of Canada to admit British colonies as provinces in Confederation, and to create provinces out of the North West Territories. The colonies admitted as provinces were British Columbia (1871), PEI (1873) and Newfoundland (1949). The Parliament of Canada created Manitoba (1870), as well as Saskatchewan and Alberta (both 1905).
When have new provinces been created?
On the day of Confederation (July 1, 1867) two provinces were created. Pursuant to section 6 of the British North America Act (now the Constitution Act) the pre-Confederation Province of Canada was severed into the Province of Ontario and the Province of Québec. The Province of Manitoba was created on July 15, 1870. The Provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan were created on September 1, 1905. All other provinces joined as colonies.
Were Upper Canada and Lower Canada called Ontario and Quebec at the time of Confederation?
The Act of Union, 1840, was passed by the British Parliament and proclaimed on February 10, 1841. On that date, the legislative assemblies of the Provinces of Upper Canada and Lower Canada were dissolved. They were then joined and created into a new political entity: the Province of Canada. The Province of Canada achieved responsible government status, but frequently found itself in a political deadlock. On July 1, 1867, the British North America Act created Canada as a separate country, the first country ever to be created by legislation. Confederation joined the Province of Canada with the Provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia in that new country. New Brunswick and Nova Scotia retained the same boundaries as they had before Confederation. The British North America Act severed the Province of Canada into two provinces: Ontario and Québec. That part of the Province of Canada which formerly was the Province of Upper Canada became the Province of Ontario. That part of the Province of Canada which formerly was the Province of Lower Canada became the Province of Québec. (The boundaries of the Provinces of Ontario and Québec have been extended several times since Confederation.) Upper Canada and Lower Canada ceased to exist on February 10, 1841, but Ontario and Québec were not created until July 1, 1867.
