The British parliament passed the Act of Union on July 23, 1840, and it was proclaimed on February 10, 1841.
Britain transferred all its northern territories to Canada and the colonies joined voluntarily.
The Act of Union, 1840, which was proclaimed on February 10, 1841, joined the colonies of Upper Canada and Lower Canada into a single colony known as the Province of Canada.
Four colonies joined the Canadian federation in 1867. They were New Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario, and Nova Scotia.
Because when the colonies were all seperated (divided, not one country) it was easy for Britain to control them. But if Canada joined, the would become stronger and more independent. Britain might loose its relationship with Canada. Joining all the colonies together would make them very strong
Many people believed that they didn't want to be governed by a country an ocean away, and it took many days to be able to send messages, so there is very low communication, and they wanted to trade to a place nearby. Then, on 1867, 4 colonies, Canada West, Canada East, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick joined together to make the dominion of Canada, and then, the other colonies, like British Columbia, joined later on.
The province that joined Canada in 1949 was Newfoundland and Labrador.Newfoundland

By state governments. The downfall to this type of government is that all of the colonies were weak because of it.
no two colonies joined that stuff.
Ontario did not exist as a separate entity prior to Confederation. Three colonies joined together to create Canada. They were Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and the pre-Confederation Province of Canada. Upon Confederation (July 1, 1867) the Province of Canada was severed into the Provinces of Québec and Ontario.
All the Australian colonies joined together as the Commonwealth of Australia on the 1st January 1901.
