What are the modern names for Canada East and Canada West?

• A. Quebec and Ontario
• B. New Brunswick and Nova Scotia
• C. Manitoba and Saskatchewan
• D. British Columbia and Alberta

Answer: (A)

Canada East and Canada West were the two parts of the Province of Canada before Confederation. The eastern part, Canada East, became Quebec, while the western part, Canada West, became Ontario. After 1867, with Confederation, those regions were reorganized into the provinces of Quebec in the east and Ontario in the west. The other options refer to different regions or later provincial formations, not the East–West division of the old Province of Canada.
