Canada was the first country to be created by legislation. The British North America Act (now the Constitution Act) created Canada as an independent nation. The Act was proclaimed on March 29, 1867, and the date fixed for the Actto come into effect was July 1, 1867.
Canada is no longer a colony of Britain; it is a fully self governing, independent nation. However, it is also a member of the British Commonwealth of Nations, and for ceremonial purposes, Queen Elizabeth II is still the head of state of Canada. Canada is, however, governed by its own elected Parliament and not by the Queen.
Canada is an independent sovereign state, but as the UK and Canada (and New Zealand, Australia etc..) share a head of state, the governments have to agree on certain issues.

It was the first treaty negotiated by Canada, independent of Britain. Before this time Canada had always looked to Britain to ratify any international agreements they made. When informed of the treaty, Britain wished to sign the treaty along with Canada, as it had in the past, but Canadian Prime MinisterWilliam Lyon Mackenzie Kingresisted. He insisted that the treaty was only a concern between Canada and the United States.
