5. The Making of the Canadian Nation

In this episode, we continue Canada’s history with the development of democracy, Confederation in 1867, the birth of the Dominion of Canada, the original provinces, Sir John A. Macdonald, westward expansion, Louis Riel and the Métis, the Canadian Pacific Railway, the First World War, Vimy Ridge, the Statute of Westminster, the Second World War, and Newfoundland and Labrador joining Canada. The goal is to organize the main dates and people so the story is easier to remember.This podcast is not official material and does not replace the Government of Canada’s Discover Canada guide.
