How many years has the Crown been a symbol of the State in Canada?

200 years
300 years
400 years
500 years

The correct answer is: 400 years

The Crown has been a symbol of the State in Canada for approximately 400 years. This is referring to the British monarchy's presence in Canada, which began in 1603 with King James VI of Scotland also becoming King James I of England. Therefore, options A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the time period in which the Crown has been a symbol of the State in Canada. Option A is too short, as it would only be 220 years, option B is too long, as it would be 320 years, and option D is too long, as it would be 420 years. It should also be noted that the concept of a symbol of the State has evolved over the years and the role of the Crown in Canada has changed, but 400 years is a commonly accepted estimate for when the British monarchy's presence in Canada began.
