Why did more people move to Canada after World War 2?
Because WW 2 had left many European countries in various states of destruction. On top of that, the early post-War years were bleak for other reasons as well: many personal items such as clothing and even food were rationed or could not be had, and wages were kept low in order to help finance the cost of reconstruction. Canada on the other hand was peaceful, prosperous, "Western" in culture and population and it advertized its need for qualified labor in many fields. Farmers could get plots of land that were ten times as big as the usually small farms in Europe, plus Government support in Canada to set up farm buidings, equipment etcetera. Many people therefore fled the destruction, shortages and low wages of their own countries to make a new start in Canada. Many European governments, struggling to find the means to feed millions of mouths , actively encouraged and often funded emigration to Canada (and Austalia and New Zealand).
How did Canada become an independent country?
It happened gradually over time. In 1867 Canada did officially become a country but under the British Crown it still had colonial status. Different Prime Ministers did small things here and there to further Canada's independence, for example when Sir Wilfrid Laurier (PM from 1896-1911 I think) created his own Navy for Canada instead of sharing Great Britain's. The two biggest strides though were probably first of all when Borden insisted that Canada have its own seat for the signing of the Treaty of Versailles (right after the world war one), which meant for the first time that Canada's international affairs were separate from Great Britain's, and of course when Trudeau brought the constitution home in 1982 which officially allowed Canada to make amendments to its own constitution instead of having to ask Great Britain to amend it for us, and was also the last step in becoming a completely independent nation.
What areas of land does Rupert's land cover?
Rupert's Land no longer exists. The Hudson's Bay Company was incorporated by Royal Charter on May 2, 1670. Prince Rupert, a cousin of the king, was the most prominent shareholder of the Hudson's Bay Company. The land granted to the Hudson's Bay Company by the Charter came to be called Rupert's Land. The land included in the grant was the entire drainage area of present day Hudson Bay (including James Bay). This was roughly two-thirds of modern day Canada, plus large portions of the States of North Dakota, South Dakota, and Minnesota. Around 1870, the Hudson's Bay Company transferred its rights in the land to Canada, and Britain transferred the territory to Canada, thus bringing Rupert's Land to an end. Today, the Hudson's Bay Company continues as the world's oldest commercial corporation.
