Why did the Allies fight the Axis powers?
The Allies entered the war on September 3, 1939, when Germany invaded Poland, which was allies with Britain and France.
The United States entered the war on December 7, 1941, when Japan, Hitler's ally, attacked pearl harbor, before declaring war on the United States, which they had intended to do minutes before the attack via a note from the Japanese representatives who had been in America to discuss peace terms, but the note was not delivered on time, but instead some time after the attack.
This is a very brief description of the reason for the allies entering world war 2, but is meant to be an overview. If you want to know more, I suggest looking up operations Barbarosa and Overlord on wikipedia.

What did France and England do to try to avoid war with Hitler?
The Allies (including France and England) had made an agreement with Germany after the first World War called the Treaty of Versailles. Hitler broke the Treaty by doing things like marching troops into the Rhineland in 1936, but the first thing he did when the Nazis came to power in 1933 was build up the army and air force. These things were all forbidden by the Treaty of Versailles, but the Allies used appeasement - the policy of giving in to avoid war - which lead to Hitler taking over Austria and the Sudetenland, then a few months later the rest of Czechoslovakia (as it was called then) and finally Poland, which caused Britain and France to declare war.

How did Canada become part of the British empire?
Canada became a country by the battle in the plains of Abraham and the war of 1812 the war was actually fought between Canada and the us. Canada was brave enough to expect the war and unfortunately the us crossed the boarder with out permission and Canada had a Chance to but the Canadian soldiers was bold enough not to . but after the war the Governor thought that Canada had really become independent and was ready to take on the position of becoming a independent country . but the war of 1812 and the battle in the plains of Abraham was just the event that led Canada to become a country . but the real event was the confederation or in other words the British signed the papers and it was final.
It's tough to say when Canada really did become its own independent country. Although, technically it happened in 1867, when Britain signed the constitution act, releasing Canada from British rule, the country was not really recognized as independent for some 100 years later. Canada went through a lot of changes, with WWI/II, and accepting provinces into its range. A defining moment for Canada's independence, however, is the battle of Vimy Ridge, in which 4 Canadian corps defeated a German stronghold. 4 Victoria crosses were handed out to four Canadian soldiers as a result of that victory. There is a quote from one of the Canadians in that battle that goes something to the effect of "We went up the hill British Soldiers, and came down Canadians"
Important correction: The battle of the Plains of Abraham (located just outside Quebec City), was fought on September 13 1759 between the British and the French. The US did not exist yet. It was a battle within the larger conflict known as the Seven Years War, but popularly referred to as the French and Indian war in US history. There were Americans in the battle as 6 companies of American Rangers fought with the British. There were Canadians in the battle as well, but they were part of the French force. It was a decisive battle because it set the stage for British dominance in what would eventually become Canada.
