Explanation:

Response
Question 3
Brief Explanations

The fear of a stronger US and annexation calls made British North American colonies (Canada's predecessors) realize unity was key for defense. The 1860s saw US expansion talk, so colonies like Canada West, Canada East, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick united (1867 Confederation) to form a stronger Canada, reducing US annexation risk.

Brief Explanations

In 1867, William Seward, US Secretary of State, purchased Alaska from Russia. This was part of his territorial expansion efforts post - Civil War.

Brief Explanations

Seward also sought to acquire the Danish West Indies (now US Virgin Islands). He aimed for more US territorial growth, though the Danish West Indies purchase was finalized later (1917), but his attempts included this and other Pacific/Caribbean territories.

Answer:

Fears of a resurgent US and annexation calls made British North American colonies (pre - Canada) unite. The threat of US expansion pushed colonies (e.g., Canada West, Canada East, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick) to consolidate in 1867 as the Dominion of Canada, creating a stronger entity to resist US annexation.
