Summary

Description
English: Map of the change to international disputes involving Canada on July 15, 1870.

The United Kingdom transferred most of its remaining land in North America to Canada, with the North-Western Territory and Rupert's Land becoming the North-West Territories. Rupert's Land was transferred to Canada in 1869,[1] but the transfer was only consummated in 1870 when £300,000 was paid to the Hudson's Bay Company.[2] Due to a vague description and lack of quality surveying, part of the western border with the United States was unclear and disputed.[3] Canada disagreed with the United Kingdom over the extent of Labrador that remained with Newfoundland Colony, citing the historical use of the term "Coasts of Labrador."

This was built with the shapefiles:

  1. ↑ Rupert's Land Act, 1868
  2. ↑ Rupert's Land and North-Western Territory Order, June 23, 1870
  3. ↑ Van Zandt, Franklin K. (1976) Boundaries of the United States and the Several States: With Miscellaneous Geographic Information Concerning Areas, Altitudes, and Geographic Centers, Washington, D.C.: U.S. Government Printing Office, p. 32 OCLC: 69426475.
