	Provinces and territories of Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The major difference between a Canadian province and a territory is that a province is a creation of the Constitution Act, while a territory is created by federal law.

		In most provinces, the single house of the legislature is known as the Legislative Assembly except in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland and Labrador, where it is called the House of Assembly, and Quebec where it is called the National Assembly.
