 | | Since 1925, Canada has claimed the portion of the Arctic between 60° and 141° W longitude ([4]); this claim is not universally recognized. | | | In 1919, Canada became a member of the League of Nations and, in the Imperial Conference of 1926, Canada assumed full control of its own through the Balfour Declaration. | | | According to the last census[11], 72% of Canadians identified as being Christians; of this, Catholics make up the largest group – 43% of Canadians. |
