The fi rst Canada DayThe fi rst Canada Day

The red and white fl ag featuring a stylized maple leaf was raised for the fi rst time over Parliament Hill in Ottawa, in 1965.

Most historians agree that two key events precipitated the creation of the Canadian Confederation. First of all, America was in the middle of a civil war, with the British Crown taking the side of the southern slave states. Confronted with this situation, the United States threatened to annexe Canada. From the American point of view, the unifi cation of all the British North American colonies would give them greater military and fi nancial striking power against England, the mother country.

Another key event was the end of the preferential tariff given by London to its colonies. In 1846, faced with the loss of this reciprocity treaty, Canada was forced to turn towards the United States for trade. A new reciprocity treaty was signed in 1854, this time with our neighbours to the south. It expired a short time later, in 1866, and was never renewed.

Following the loss of these two major trade markets, plans were made to unite the six independent colonies that formed

British North America. On March 29, 1867, Queen Victoria approved the British North America Act, and the Dominion of Canada came into effect on July 1 of the same year.

The last time that Canada underwent a geopolitical change was in 1999, with the

creation of a new territory, Nunavut.

Canada Day celebrations usually involve fun activities for the whole family, such as dance and musical performances, children’s shows, and face-painting. Many larger Canadian towns also organize a fl ag-raising event, an important ceremony that brings a moment of gravity to the festivities.

HERE ARE SOME INTERESTING TIDBITS ABOUT OUR FLAG:

• Some vexillologists (fl ag specialists) say that the Canadian fl ag is one of the most beautiful in the world because of its simplicity in colour and design.

• The red and white fl ag featuring the stylized maple leaf was raised for the fi rst time over Parliament Hill in Ottawa, in 1965.

• Red and white were designated as Canada’s offi cial colours during the proclamation of the Royal Arms of Canada by King George V in 1921.

• The Canadian fl ag was fi rst planted on the summit of Mount Everest in 1982 and appeared in space for the fi rst time in 1984, on the uniform of Canadian astronaut Marc Garneau.
