When did British Columbia become a part of Canada?

  1. 1867

  2. 1870

  3. 1871

  4. 1873

The correct answer is: 1871

British Columbia became a part of Canada in 1871, when it joined as the sixth province in the Canadian Confederation. Option A (1867) may seem like a possible answer since that was the year when Canada officially became a country, but it did not include BC at that time. Option B (1870) is the year when Manitoba joined Canada, and Option D (1873) is the year when Prince Edward Island joined, so both of those are incorrect for the same reason as Option A.
