What is the Constitutional Act of 1791?

Established the first parliament in Canada
Divided the Province of Quebec into Upper Canada (later Ontario), which was mainly Loyalist, Protestant, and English-speaking, and Lower Canada (later Quebec), heavily Catholic and French-speaking
The act that granted Canada full independence from Britain
Established a single religious denomination throughout Canada

The correct answer is: Divided the Province of Quebec into Upper Canada (later Ontario), which was mainly Loyalist, Protestant, and English-speaking, and Lower Canada (later Quebec), heavily Catholic and French-speaking

The Constitutional Act of 1791 divided the Province of Quebec into Upper Canada and Lower Canada. Option A is incorrect because the act did not establish the first parliament in Canada, as Canada already had a legislative assembly at the time. Option C is incorrect because the act did not grant Canada full independence from Britain, as Canada was still a British colony. Option D is incorrect because the act did not establish a single religious denomination throughout Canada, as religious freedom was protected in both Upper and Lower Canada.
