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

There are 3 ranks in the Canadian Government, one is called the municipal government, the government takes care of in the city. The next one is called the provincial government, which the government takes care of in the province and the federal government, which the government takes care of in the country Canada.
