Ironically, after years of dispute over Quebecois separatism, Canadian unity finally foundered on another issue entirely. Disputes over taxes and environmental policy caused British Columbia to secede in 2033. Once the union had been broken, other provinces chose to elevate their own disputes with the central government into pretexts for secession. Even the autonomous region of Nunavut, far in the arctic north, began agitating for independence. By 2045 Canada had been whittled down to its core, with Manitoba, Ontario and Saskatchewan the only provinces remaining in the union.
The final dissolution of Canada was remarkably amicable, aside from a few disputes over the division of national property and the undeveloped northern territories. Today Canada maintains a friendly relationship with most of the splinter states. Canada is a prosperous Fifth Wave society, with strong economic ties to the United States. Since it adjoins three of the Great Powers (the European Union, the Pacific Rim Alliance, and the United States) Canada sees a great deal of international trade. It also has a chronic problem with smuggling across previously undefended borders.
See also Alberta and British Columbia, Maritimes, Montreal, Newfoundland, Nunavut, and Quebec.
