In 1860, the Province of Canada passed the Indian Lands Act. An important element of this Act was the centralization of control over Aboriginal affairs for the colony. The Act created the office of the Chief Superintendent of Indian Affairs, and transferred all authority for Aboriginals and their lands in the Province of Canada to this single official. Moreover, the Chief Superintendent was given very broad discretionary powers over reserve Aboriginals. This centralization continued in 1867, when the Province of Canada was united with Nova Scotia and New Brunswick to create the new nation of the Dominion of Canada. Section 91(24) of the Constitution Act, 1867, gave legislative authority over Aboriginals and their lands to the federal Parliament, removing it from the provincial legislatures.]]> 2016-12-11 16:31:33 UTC https://padlet.com/alison_fasano/8hsqytjkbrxu/wish/142998674 alison_fasano https://padlet.com/alison_fasano/8hsqytjkbrxu/wish/142998987 http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/timelines/black-history/#

Some of the motivations for the union was to limit French-Canadian political power and at the same time transferring a large part of the Upper Canadian debt to the debt-free Lower Canada. After many decades of British immigration, the Canadiens became a minority in the Province of Canada in the 1850s.

French-Canadian contributions were essential in securing responsible government for The Canadas and in undertaking Canadian Confederation. However, over the course of the late 19th and 20th centuries, French Canadians' discontent grew with their place in Canada because of a series of events, including the execution of Louis Riel, the elimination of official bilingualism in Manitoba, Canada's participation in the Second Boer War, Regulation 17 which banned French-language schools in Ontario, the Conscription Crisis of 1917and the Conscription Crisis of 1944.
