When were Upper and Lower Canada united as the Province of Canada?

  1. 1834

  2. 1840

  3. 1867

  4. 1871

The correct answer is: 1840

In 1834, Upper and Lower Canada were not united as the Province of Canada. At this time, Upper and Lower Canada were still separate colonies with their own governments. In 1867, the Province of Canada became part of the Dominion of Canada alongside Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, but this did not involve the unification of Upper and Lower Canada. It wasn't until 1840 that Upper and Lower Canada were officially united as the Province of Canada under the British North America Act. This was a result of the Act of Union, which was passed in 1840 and came into effect in 1841. The two colonies were united in an effort to address ongoing political and cultural tensions between the English and French populations in each colony.
