Like Australia, the USA and several other countries, Canada was formed with a federal form of government. Provinces are a fundamental part of Canada. Seven of the ten provinces had been in existence before Canada was created.

Governmental responsibility is divided between the federal government and the provincial governments. The federal government has certain governing powers and the provincial governments have other governing powers. Most of these can be found in sections 91 and 92 of the Constitution Act.
