Canada’s Sesquicentennial<br />
J<br />
uly 1, 1867 marks the Confederation of Canada. Upper and Lower Canada (Ontario and<br />
Quebec), New Brunswick and Nova Scotia united into one country under the British<br />
North America Act. Sir John A. Macdonald became the first Prime Minister. When<br />
Manitoba joined the Dominion in 1870 Canada welcomed new immigrants to clear the prairies<br />
and settle this vast land. As Ukrainian pioneers arrived, they participated and contributed to<br />
nation building. Let us celebrate Canada Day and take pride in our Canadian Ukrainian legacy. УВ<br />
