Were Upper Canada and Lower Canada called Ontario and Quebec at the time of Confederation?
The Act of Union, 1840, was passed by the British Parliament and proclaimed on February 10, 1841. On that date, the legislative assemblies of the Provinces of Upper Canada and Lower Canada were dissolved. They were then joined and created into a new political entity: the Province of Canada. The Province of Canada achieved responsible government status, but frequently found itself in a political deadlock. On July 1, 1867, the British North America Act created Canada as a separate country, the first country ever to be created by legislation. Confederation joined the Province of Canada with the Provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia in that new country. New Brunswick and Nova Scotia retained the same boundaries as they had before Confederation. The British North America Act severed the Province of Canada into two provinces: Ontario and Québec. That part of the Province of Canada which formerly was the Province of Upper Canada became the Province of Ontario. That part of the Province of Canada which formerly was the Province of Lower Canada became the Province of Québec. (The boundaries of the Provinces of Ontario and Québec have been extended several times since Confederation.) Upper Canada and Lower Canada ceased to exist on February 10, 1841, but Ontario and Québec were not created until July 1, 1867.
