### Constitution of Canada

*See also: The Evolution of a Constitution*

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. As time progressed, the change over to V2 came about, which again lead to calls for constitutional reform, in response Congress created the Constitutional Reform Team, which is currently debating and developing the new Constitution of Canada.

# File:Icon alliance signed.gif.png 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 2008 Canada continued to gain support on the world stage, in being a member of the Mediterranean Alliance & also forging MPPs with all of its bordering countries, including former enemy, the USA. Currently Canada has MPP's with many EDEN and Terra countries. It has also befriended two former enemies, Indonesia and Bulgaria.

## 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 and then in May 2012 Canada left EDEN . It is currently not in an alliance.

Chucky Norris has written series of articles about history of Canada. These articles can be found here: From the Archives of eCanada.

## 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.

### Hungary-Czech Republic War

*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 Scotia War** (Great War of 2009)

*July 13, 2009 - June 2010*

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.

### EDEN/Terra-ONE (World War V)

*2011- Present*
Canada was a EDEN and Terra member till Day 1653 of the new world when Congress and the President's Cabinet had decided being in both EDEN and Terra was very difficult to manage and EDEN was having many conflicts and the President Sperry agreed that it would be best so Canada left EDEN but will still be Fighting against ONE as a TERRA member.
