The Quebec Act of 1774 was primarily motivated by the British government's desire to stabilize and govern the newly acquired territory of Canada after the Seven Years' War. It aimed to secure the loyalty of French Canadians by granting them religious freedom and restoring the use of French civil law. The effects of its passage included heightened tensions between the British government and the American colonists, who perceived the Act as an encroachment on their rights and an attempt to expand British control, ultimately contributing to the revolutionary sentiment that led to the American Revolution. Additionally, it expanded the boundaries of Quebec, which further alarmed colonists who feared it would limit westward expansion.
