France
During the Confederation period in Canada (1867-1871), relations were particularly tense with the United States due to concerns over potential expansionism and the lingering effects of the American Civil War. The Fenian Raids, carried out by Irish-American nationalists seeking to pressure Britain over Irish independence, further strained relations. Additionally, there were tensions with Indigenous nations regarding land rights and governance as Canada sought to solidify its territorial claims.
Norman French was in use during this period.

Iroquois Confederation
During the Revolutionary War, the Americansrealized that they needed to unite to win the war against Britain. So after they decided many things about what they wanted the government to be like, they reached a final plan called the Articles of Confederation.
Sir John A. Macdonald represented the colony of Britain during the confederation proses.
"Polite but cold" sums it up nicely. As the largest cotton producer in the world in which moreover much British capital had been invested, Great Britain - and certainly many of its businessmen - had good reason not to formally declare itself pro-Union and anti-Confederacy. So it formally took a neutral position. But a decade before the Civil War, Great Britain had already taken a formal stance against slavery. So informal relations with the Union were good, while Confederate applies for help met with polite refusal.
Anglo-American relations had been good for decades previous. The similar forms of government shared by the Allies, including Britain, and America were a tie.
