Saint Pierre & Miquelon
The French claimed parts of Canada, particularly Quebec, and areas along the Mississippi River in North America as their colonies in the New World. They also colonized islands in the Caribbean, such as Haiti and Martinique.

Canada is the large country that has a significant number of islands to the north, particularly in the Arctic region. These islands comprise the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, which is one of the largest groups of islands in the world.
The province of British Columbia has the most islands in Canada, with an estimated over 27,000 islands along its coastline. These islands are part of the Pacific archipelago and are known for their natural beauty and diverse ecosystems.
I believe Jacques Cartier explored the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and the shores of the Saint Lawrence River, so he would have made landfall in that area. He also stopped at ÃŽles aux Oiseaux (Islands of the Birds, now the Rochers-aux-Oiseaux federalbird sanctuary) northeast of Brion Island in the Magdalen Islands.

Canada East was not a political entity. It was part of the pre-Confederation Province of Canada. The Province of Canada was one of the three colonies that joined to create Canada, the first country to be created by legislation. The other two colonies were Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. Confederation occurred on July 1, 1867. Immediately upon Confederation, the Province of Canada was severed into the Provinces of Ontario and Québec.
There were only three colonies that joined in Confederation to create the new nation of Canada in 1867. Those colonies were Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and the pre-Confederation colony of Canada.Upon Confederation, the colony of Canada was severed into the Province of Québec and the Province of Ontario.See sections 3 and 5 of the Constitution Act.
Confederation was risky as it had small colonies joining with the very much larger province of Canada (today's Ontario and Quebec). History has shown those concerns to be valid as today Canada is moving from a Confederation in which each Nation is equal to a Federation dominated by the most populous provinces.
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.
They reoresented their own colonies which were the Maritime colonies, and the Province of Canada, before 1867. After that beautiful year many other fathers joined the confederation. They also represent the country of Canada. And if you have a problem with that. I got 2 words for ya. SUCK IT. ☺
The colonies where separated send depended on England Canada became a country in July1,1867.
In Canada, the "Confederation" refers to the entire nation, similar to the way that the "Union" refers to the entire nation in the United States. The colonies of confederation refers to the original British colonies/provinces that merged to form Canada (Upper/Lower Canada, now Quebec and Ontario), New Brunswick, Nova Scotia.
The French claimed parts of Canada, particularly Quebec, and areas along the Mississippi River in North America as their colonies in the New World. They also colonized islands in the Caribbean, such as Haiti and Martinique.
