    Hi AdorableAlligator1342 😁

    Thansk for your question


    King George III wanted to appoint a new governor to ensure the loyalty of the Province of Quebec, as discontent was growing in the Thirteen Colonies, so he appointed Guy Carleton. Carleton soon realized, however, that he was of the same opinion as his predecessor, James Murray. In 1774, Carleton succeeded in convincing George III to give his consent to Parliament to adopt a new constitution for the benefit of Canadians: the Quebec Act.
