BRITISH ARCTIC TERRITORIES

'British Arctic Territories' was the series of islands in Canada's high arctic.
The British claims of the islands are linked to the discoveries of Martin Frobisher (1535–1594) in the 16th century. Britain passed control of the islands to Canada in 1880.

★ North - West Territory

These territories later became British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, northern Ontario, Northwest Territories, Yukon Territory, Nunavut, northern Quebec (or Ungava Pennisula) and Labrador.
