Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Newfoundland and Labrador was a British colony until it became a Dominion in 1907. It remained a Dominion until 1934, when it reverted to colonial status due to financial difficulties. In 1948, the region held a referendum and voted to become a province of Canada, with the formal transfer of power taking place on March 31 of that year. Nunavut did not become a separate territory until 1999, while Nova Scotia and New Brunswick were among the original four provinces that formed Confederation in 1867.
