Which event symbolizes peace and Britain's success in gaining control of Canada?

• A. The Treaty of Paris 1763.
• B. The Royal Proclamation.
• C. The Quebec Act.
• D. The British North America Act.

Answer: (A)

The main idea is that a formal end to war and the transfer of sovereignty can symbolize both peace and a clear shift in who holds power. The Treaty of Paris in 1763 ended the Seven Years’ War between Britain and France and, as part of the peace terms, France ceded Canada to Britain. That moment literally marks Britain’s takeover of the territory and the establishment of British rule there, which is why it’s seen as symbolizing both peace and Britain’s success in gaining control of Canada.

The other events played important roles later in shaping governance and rights, but they don’t represent the moment when control of Canada transferred from France to Britain after a war.
