When was the British North America Act created?
July 1, 1867
April 17, 1982
January 1, 1900
September 3, 1939
The correct answer is: July 1, 1867
The British North America Act, also known as the Constitution Act of 1867, was created on July 1, 1867. This act officially united the provinces of Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick into the Dominion of Canada. The other options listed are incorrect because none of them correspond to the date of the British North America Act. Choice B, April 17, 1982, refers to the date of the Canada Act, which ended the authority of the British Parliament over Canada and made Canada fully self-governing. Choice C, January 1, 1900, does not hold any significant historical relevance to Canada. Choice D, September 3, 1939, is the date that marked the beginning of World War II, but it has no connection to the British North America Act.
