There had been many suggestions of intimi' in the last century. Colouel Morse suggestocl It In 1777, the Inde- pendent loyalists in 1791, Jchn B.

At last, the British North America Act was ready and on March 29, 1867, was passed by Great Britain and on July 1, 1867, Canada b'eoame a Dominion. The terms of this Act which made Canada a free Dominion across the see from her Motherland are: (1) Upper and Lower Canada, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia were form. ed to be one Dominion under the name of Canada.
