Confederation Kickstarter

As we approach the point of Confederation in Canada, we can look back at all of the
significant events that kick-started Canada into Confederation. We have studied important
dates and individuals that shaped these significant events and can acknowledge the role that
they played in getting Canada to where it is today.
Your task is to select the kickstarter event you feel helped kickstart confederation and
is most significant leading up to Confederation. Next, you will identify one key date that you
think is the most important in the historical event. Finally, you will select a perspective that
was involved in the event and identify the role they played in the event you have chosen.
You will present your ideas in a PowerPoint presentation following the outline
below. You must write a statement to describe the kickstarter event, each date, and the
perspective you chose. First you must complete a note guide to organize your presentation.

You must select one kickstarter event leading up to Confederation from the list below:
● The War of 1812

Remember, your assignment must identify and write a statement about the following:
❏ The Kickstarter Event that shaped Confederation
❏ Three significant dates that outline the event
