The Act of Union, generally called the Union Act in 1841, grouped Upper Canada and Lower Canada together under a single assembly. The two Canadas, called the "Province of Canada," officially became United Canada with the Union Act. Upper Canada and Lower Canada (Quebec) thereafter were legally known as Canada West (Ontario) and Canada East (Quebec). This was in response to the violent rebellions of 1837-38. The Durham Report (1839) recommended the guidelines to create the new colony with the Act of Union.
