Quick Facts
Rich History of Canada and Heritage
The history of Canada spans thousands of years, beginning with the arrival of Indigenous peoples from Asia. These diverse First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples established complex societies with distinct cultures, languages, and ways of life across the vast territory. They developed sophisticated knowledge of the land and its resources, maintaining extensive trade networks.
European exploration began in the late 15th century, with voyages by John Cabot for the English and Jacques Cartier for the French. French settlement started in the early 17th century, primarily along the St. Lawrence River, establishing the colony of New France. The British also established colonies along the Atlantic coast. The rivalry between Britain and France for control of North America led to a series of wars, culminating in the Seven Years' War, after which France ceded most of its North American territories to Great Britain in 1763.
Under British rule, the Province of Quebec was created, and later divided into Upper and Lower Canada. Tensions between English and French-speaking populations, as well as calls for greater self-governance, led to rebellions in 1837-38. In 1867, the British North America Act united three British colonies (the Province of Canada, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia) into a self-governing Dominion called Canada. This marked the beginning of Confederation, with other provinces and territories joining over time, eventually forming the Canada we know today, stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific to the Arctic oceans.
Canada gradually gained more autonomy from the United Kingdom throughout the 20th century, participating in both World Wars as an independent nation. The Statute of Westminster in 1931 recognized Canada's legislative independence, and the Constitution Act, 1982, finally severed the last legal ties to the British Parliament. Today, Canada is a fully independent federal parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy, known for its commitment to multiculturalism, peacekeeping, and a high quality of life.
