What was the outcome of the Canadian Confederation on July 1, 1867?

Formation of the Dominion of Canada
Independence of Canada from Britain
Establishment of Canada as a republic
Division of Canada into East and West

The correct answer is: Formation of the Dominion of Canada

The Canadian Confederation, also known as the Constitution Act of 1867, resulted in the formation of the Dominion of Canada on July 1, 1867. This marked the consolidation of the three colonies of Canada, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick into a single country. Therefore, options B and C are incorrect as they suggest independence from Britain and establishment as a republic, which did not happen until much later. Option D is also incorrect as the Canadian Confederation united the colonies rather than dividing them.
