The ending of the American Civil War in 1865 highlighted the instability and potential dangers of a fragmented continent, prompting British North American colonies to reconsider their own political futures. With fears of U.S. expansionism and the potential for similar conflicts, leaders in Canada recognized the need for greater unity for economic, military, and political strength. This led to discussions that culminated in the Confederation of 1867, where Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia united to form the Dominion of Canada, aiming to create a more cohesive and secure entity.
