I think you're referring to Confederation, which was Canada's first formal constitution and forged the original 4 provinces. If so, it came into effect July 1, 1867: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_North_America_Acts
It's possible you might also be referring to 1982, when Canada officially severed all ties from Britain and introduced the Bill of Rights to the constitution: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitution_Act%2C_1982
