Canada's Relationship with the British Empire Part I
Back in the 20th century Canada had a necessary relationship with the British Empire. Now why was it important? Well without that relationship history would be totally different. Let me explain why. The relationship officially started on July 1, 1867 because that's when Canada became a official country. Now, why would this change history? Well, on August 4, 1914 Britain declared war on Germany and because the British Empire and Canada had such a good relationship, Canada helped them in the war.
Canada was very happy with the British Empire and enjoyed the peace and liberty of of it as well. They also had a rule going that Canada had to help the British in the war, and in return there would be harmony. Canada also felt " a strong connection to the British empire because of the culture and several immigrants living in Britain. Finally the great relationship between these two countries was a very important factor in the war.
Canada's Relationship with the British Empire Part II
The British Empire did with the war; however, without Canada's help in World War one who knows what would be going on today. There were many other times that this relationship between Canada and the British Empire changed history. Like, the Constitutional Independence, World War Two, etc. Also the trading between the two countries is really good, being that the British Empire is Canada's third highest traders after the USA and China. In conclusion without Canada and the British Empire having a good relationship with one another history would be very different.
This act had replaced the BNA act and gave the Legislative power over to Canada.This meant Canada was able to make changes to the Constitution. The Constitution shows Canada's government system, laws, and the rights of people. The Constitution gives definite freedom for the people.

In 1981, the Canadian House of Commons and their Senate agreed on a decision that they'd ask the British Parliament to accept a package that would end the rule Britain had over the Canadian Parliament. Therefore, Canada would create a new way for constitutional improvements. The Canada Act included the words of the Constitution Act. The British Parliament had accepted the Canada Act, granted by Queen Victoria in 1867: which was 115 years before she gave Canada power over the country. Queen Elizabeth II had signed the proclamation in Ottawa, on March 29,1982 which brought the Constitutional Act into force.
