About the Canadian Provinces and Territories and their Capitals:

The country of Canada is separated into 13 geographic locations known as provinces and territories. During the Confederation of 1867, three provinces were united to form a federated colony. These provinces were New Brunswick (British North America), Nova Scotia and the Province of Canada, which was divided into Ontario and Quebec. From 1870 to 1949, Canada saw the rest of its provinces and territories join, the last being Nunavut in 1999. The provinces receive their power and authority from the Constitution Act of 1867. The territories receive their power from the Parliament of Canada.
