due to various reasons, not the least of which was the massive bloody fratricide in the divided United States, Statesmen from the British territories, (that successfully defended themselves from the American rebels between 1774 and 1815), met in 1864 to discuss a Unification under British Law. The first meeting was held in Charlottown PEI, (September 1864), and a second, concluding conference in Quebec City, (October 1864). This resulted in a formal proposal that was presented to Officials of the British government in London, at the London Conference of 1866. Here, the British North American Act was drafted and the Bill quickly passed through the British Parliament and was signed into Law by Queen Victoria, taking effect on July 1st, 1867, giving birth to the Dominion of Canada.
