Lord Durham was by sent by Britain to investigate why the Canadians were feeling so rebellious. In his report, he blamed the French-Canadian people and culture. Because of him, Upper Canada and Lower Canada were merged into the the Province of Canada so that the French would be a minority. Furthermore, more English Immigration was encouraged to Canada to turn in into an all-Anglo colony (this obviously failed).
The new Province had equal numbers of MPs from Canada West (Ontario) and Canada East (Quebec) and a co-Prime Minister from each. Lord Durham also recommended that the Province of Canada get an elected responsible government, but that was not done until several years later.
The union was not a wholy happy one; the two halves of Canada had frequent political conflicts with each other. In 1867, the union was expanded to include the maritime colonies, becoming the modern Dominion of Canada, so that French-Canada would become one province in a confederation of equals.

The 1837 Rebellions in Canada, occurring in Upper and Lower Canada (now Ontario and Quebec), were significant as they highlighted widespread discontent with British colonial rule and the political and economic inequalities faced by the colonies. The uprisings, led by figures like William Lyon Mackenzie and Louis-Joseph Papineau, ultimately prompted discussions about reform and self-governance. Although the rebellions were suppressed, they laid the groundwork for the eventual Confederation of Canada in 1867 and the establishment of responsible government, shaping the future of Canadian democracy.
The Rebellions of 1837 in Upper and Lower Canada were quickly suppressed by the colonial government due to a combination of factors, including superior military resources and organization. The colonial authorities, backed by British troops, were able to respond swiftly and decisively to the uprisings. Additionally, the rebels were poorly coordinated and lacked a unified strategy, making it easier for the government forces to quell the insurrections. Ultimately, the rebellions highlighted the need for political reform, which eventually led to significant changes in governance.

the long term causes of the rebellions are because upper Canada and lower Canada were fighting and the rebellions was with upper and lower Canada and because they were very rude and mean people so they fought over dumb things like land or trade.
