Many people believed that they didn't want to be governed by a country an ocean away, and it took many days to be able to send messages, so there is very low communication, and they wanted to trade to a place nearby. Then, on 1867, 4 colonies, Canada West, Canada East, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick joined together to make the dominion of Canada, and then, the other colonies, like British Columbia, joined later on.
In 1750, the British Empire held lands in what is now Canada, the US, several Caribbean island and Central American nations, several African nations, Bangladesh/India, and Ireland.
