The Constitution of Canada
Canada is governed by the Constitution of Canada which defines the rights of Canadians & the duties of the Government that leads them. The first document was the brainchild of one of Canada's most popular Presidents, Adam Sutler. It took him many months to draft and underwent intensive debate to define the details, especially the roles & duties of the Canadian Government, being that of the President, Canadian Ministers, Congress & even it s Mayors. It was made an official document on August 7. 2008 through the signing of President Adam Sutler, the Admin of Erepublik & the Mayors of Canada at the time.
With the release of V1, the document became obsolete after many game structure changes. The Canadian government, therefore, decided it to be time to write a new constitution. Minister of Communication at the time (Bruck), took it upon himself to write the document back in mid-October. The new constitution was finished by January 2009 and ratified by admins and congress on January 23, 2009.

Canadian Victory Cross - Four months after the War of Nave’s Toe was finally ended by the signing of a peace treaty between Canada and the USA, then-President Adam Sutler in one of his final gestures as President awarded the Canadian Victory Cross to those who fought above and beyond the call of duty to secure Canada's freedom.

Tax Rates
The original tax plan was formulated by former President Adam Sutler & former Minister of Finance Tony Stark in June 2008. The tax plan currently being used is one drafted by successive Ministers of Finance under President Jacobi, including Moffington and Dean22. The tax plan is markedly different from the former Canadian consensus, in that it attempts to help Canadian businesses directly through extremely low VAT taxes and protectionist import tax levels.

|---|---|---|---|
| Food | 15% | 50% | 1% |
| Gift | 15% | 40% | 1% |

Canada's Military History
War of Nave's Toe (USA-Canada War)
April 11, 2008 - April 26, 2008
One of the first wars in eRepublik. eUnited States planned a surprise attack on Canada but thanks to the help of foreign freedom fighters and strong will of Canadians, the battle ended in a rough stalemate.
June 01, 2008 - June 23, 2008
Canada was not directly involved, instead President Adam Sutler offered Hungary the offensive help of the Canadian Rangers. This was their maiden mission and it was a considered a success.
The French Fry War (France-Canada War)
December 2008 - Current
The Scotia War ([[Great War of 2009])
July 13, 2009 - Current
Initially, the Hungarian "training war" in Scotland was seen as a direct threat to the safety and security of Canada, since it opened up a direct path to North America. Then, after two months of cautious peace, France launched a massive, PEACE-backed invasion of Nova Scotia instead. At the same time, a Russian invasion of Alaska attacked the Pacific coast, opening a two front war against North America.
Nova Scotia fell, and the invasion moved on into Prince Edward Island without pause. This was the first time that an enemy captured a Canadian province since the Can-Am War. The Russian offensive was beaten back, but at the cost of losing the battle for PEI. An American counter-attack against occupied Nova Scotia delayed further French advances.
Foreign Affairs
Canada paid the price for being isolationist early on and it was not until the War of Nave's Toe that Canada realized it needed to place Foreign Affairs as a top priority for its survival.
The primary provider of support during the War of Nave's Toe was Romania, who forged Canada's first MPP in April 2008. From there Canada continued to gain support on the world stage, in being a member of the Mediterranean Alliance & also forging MPPs with all of it's bordering countries, including former enemy, the USA.
Alliances
Canada became the first & only non-European member of the now defunct Mediterranean Alliance on May 20, 2008.
Since the breakdown of the MA, Canada became a member of the ATLANTIS alliance under President Cottus Arci in late September 2008.
When ATLANTIS was dissolved, Canada first became a member of Fortis, and then in August 2009, the first and only non-European member of EDEN.
Canada also has observer status in the SOL alliance.
