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.

Why did England appease Hitler?
"You seriously need to check your history. England (Britain in fact, not just England) NEVER gave in to Hitler." Actually, I think the problem here is the way the person worded the question. It is indeed correct to say England did not "give in" (as in surrender), but many people felt that Neville Chamberlain, whose policy as prime minister was to appease Hitler, gave in to him. Chamberlain truly believed that he could bargain with Hitler and that Hitler would compromise. Hitler, of course, had NO intention to compromise, and when Chamberlain came back home to England claiming he had basically prevented a war, and that there would be "peace in our time," he found out all too soon that Hitler had no intention of compromising, nor did he want peace. Chamberlain's serious mistake was trying to appease Hitler, and as I said, many people saw that as "giving in" to him.

What jobs did the Jews in England do?
First of all, the Jews were expelled from England (after a number of anti-Jewish massacres), for several hundred years. While they were in Norman England, they were mostly commanded to limit themselves to moneylending, and there were a few Jewish doctors as well. They were banned from most trades. Under King Henry, Jews were allowed to buy and sell goods (1100-1135). Detailed information may be had on this linked page.
When Jews returned to England (1600s-1800s), they functioned as merchants and traders, and Nathan Mayer Rothschild founded a bank (1798). Later, as the British gradually relaxed their anti-Semitic decrees and attitude (1800s), the Jews were able to diversify their occupations.
