In 1776 the USA declared independence from England fought a war to make it stick.

Since the English colonization of North America Canada has moved slowly away from England, in My lifetime we have gotten our own flag in 1967 and "Patriated" our own constitution 1982. Until then any changes to the Canadian Constitution had to go through the English Parliament.
