Best Answer

During the period of 1867, a Confederation of six colonies of the British North American joined to form a new country, Canada. Then gradually, the military, financial and administrative support from the British slowly reduced as the new formed country took charge and more responsibility in the control of its future and destiny. This was strengthened by the fact that Canada had sent many troops to fight with Britain and its participation in the First World War. Great Britain's application of the Statute of Westminster to its dominions from the Acts of Parliament, granted New Zealand, the Irish, Newfoundland, Union of South Africa, Australia and Canada full independence.

Canada gained its independence without going through a war. Instead, England simply set up the government in Ottawa and made Canada independent. The United States had to fight a war to gain independence. On the other hand, the United States gained its independence with the help of the French Army. After the American Civil War ended, the United States had the most powerful Army and Navy in the world. Canada wanted its independence. Queen Victoria ordered Parliament to grant independence to Canada.

The US revolted and got their independence through violence. Canada went "hey, we think we're ready for self-government, can we become a country of our own please?" after they helped out a lot in WWI and Britain went "Sure!".

What is the history of US-Canada independence?

It's not clear whether you are thinking of Canada's independence from the US (or the other way around). But Canada never was part or a colony of the US. As it is, Canada simply established itself as a nation independent from Britain in 1919 by joining the League of Nations as a sovereign country without Britain's involvement. This de facto independence was confirmed by the British Government's Statute of Westminster in 1932. In 1982 the last small remnants of British influence over Canada were removed through the Canada Act of 1982.The Queen is still Canada's Head of State, but her role there - as represented by her Governor-General - is only ceremonial. The Governor is always a Canadian citizen and appointed by the Queen as proposed by the Canadian Government.The US declared itself independent from Britain in 1776. Britain formally recognized the USA's independence in the peace treaty of 1783.
