Best Answer

There were many including securing British claim to their spoils of the Seven Years War and trying to keep them and as much as possible from the Americans. The British had concerns that the 90,000 British subjects in Canada, called Quebec after Quebec City, were less than loyal to the Crown and might join the American colonies who were becoming outright rebellious. The Quebec Act of 1774 was meant to address those and other issues.
