  Province of Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Province of Canada or the United Province of Canada was a British colony in North America from 1841 to 1867.
Before 1841, the territory roughly corresponding to Southern Ontario in Canada belonged to the British colony of Upper Canada, while the southern portion of Québec, Canada, and the Labrador region of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, belonged to the colony of Lower Canada.
As Canada East and Canada West each held 42 seats in the Legislative Assembly, there was legislative deadlock between English, mainly from Canada West, and French, mainly from Canada East.

 Canada Versus United States of America Cricket 1844 St George Cricket Club Ground, Manhattan, New York
It has been continually reported, in Canada, that the earliest international athletic contest, of the modern era, was established in 1844 when Canada and the United States played at cricket at the Saint George's Club in New York for a wager of $1,000.00.
The match in 1844 at Bloomingdale in New York, came about because in 1843, a New York team had landed penniless in Toronto and were fully financed and entertained by their magnanimous hosts.
It is generally accepted that the match between USA v Canada in September 1844 was the first international cricket fixture.
