The American Civil War was primarily fought between the Northern states, known as the Union, and the Southern states that seceded from the Union to form the Confederacy.

So, at the end of the Civil War in 1865, the Northern accused the British colonies of aiding the Southern states. This made the relationship between the Us and Britsh North America uneasy, and so the British North American contient was afraid that the Us was going to expand Northward and take their terrritory in revenge.
Prior to the US Civil War, Southern states were sometimes referred to as slave holding states. Technically and in reality, until the Civil War, all US states were called US states. This is not some way to marginalize the antebellum period of the US.
