This is the Balfour declaration of 1926 not, perhaps better known internationally, the Balfour declaration of 1917 (from the same individual) which related to Palestine. The 1926 declaration involved recognition, or granting, perhaps depending on point of view, of new degrees of autonomy for Canada. See Wikipedia articles below for details on the declaration and the implications of dominion status. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balfour_Declaration_1926 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominion

Explain the significance of the Balfour Declaration for Canada?

The Balfour Declaration had no significance for Canada; it was an agreement to provide for the establishment of a Jewish National Homeland in what would become Mandatory Palestine.The Balfour Declaration was the first promise by the British Empire to give the Jewish people a national home in Palestine. It was the first major success of the Zionist Movement and led to increased pressure by Jews to immigrate to the territory and set the foundations of a new Jewish State-to-be. As the Zionists worked to create a Jewish state, the support of one of the world's largest powers, that was soon to take over Palestine, was crucial. This also changed the future trajectory of Israel/Palestine as a region, allowing the seeds of Israel's creation to be sown.
