Canada left the Confederation to become its own nation on July 1st, 1867. This significant date marks the establishment of the Dominion of Canada through the enactment of the Constitution Act, 1867. On this day, the British North America Act came into effect, uniting the provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and the Province of Canada (which later split into Ontario and Quebec) into a single nation. July 1st is celebrated as Canada Day, commemorating the country's independence and the beginning of a new era in Canadian history.
