Dominion Day was formed on July 1, 1867, when the British North America Act came into effect, creating the Dominion of Canada. This day marked the confederation of the original provinces of Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia into a single nation. Dominion Day was later renamed Canada Day in 1982, reflecting a broader celebration of Canadian identity and independence.
