Which of Canada's Atlantic Provinces has jurisdiction over mainly uninhabited Labrador?
Labrador is an integral part of the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
What province in Canada was unhappy with the conscription law?
Quebec. The lower part of Quebec along the St Lawrence River was once part of New France. When defeated by the British in the 1700's they were allowed to stay and stay they did. That did not mean that they would ever forget their defeat at the hands of the British.
That, shall we say dislike, of the British was transferred to Canada when Canada Confederated even though the French were given special status in the Confederation.
As a result they do not want to see Canada succeed in certain areas, particularly the military and they sure as heck do not want Canada to spend time and money or French lives on wars helping the British.
The World War was seen as helping the British and helping the Canadian Military and conscription would get people of French descent killed for something they did not agree with.
Quebec has yet to sign on to the Canadian Institution and would almost certainly resist any moves towards conscription today unless it meant they could have control of all or part of the military created.

Why isent Nova Scotia part of the 13 th colonies any more?
It never was a part of the "13 colonies", so the "any more" part of your question is not applicable.
Your question boils down to "Why did Canada not rebel against England at the same time as the United States did?" The answer is that the people living in Canada did not object to living under British rule - in fact, they preferred it. Some Americans also preferred it, and they moved to Canada when the American Revolution happened. These people were known as the United Empire Loyalists.
What are the cultural influences in the Canadian prairies?
french
The French have had a minor role on the Prairies when it comes to cultural influences and that is for the most part limited to a small part of southern Manitoba, even though they did get to some areas before the English.
Larger influences were had by the Aboriginals English and Scottish. Then after Canada began a massive immigration process to disenfranchise those already on the land, which included the French, other cultures became more influential depending on the area.
That would include the Germans, Ukrainians, Icelanders and those from Scandinavian countries.
Today major influences are being felt from Indian and Chinese cultures.
