Balfour Report, November 18, 1926
the conclusions of an Imperial Conference committee under the chairmanship of Lord Balfour, a British Cabinet minister and former prime minister, on relations between the self-governing parts of the empire. This was a pivotal document in Canada's development toward a true nation (so you see, Canada still had not confederated this many years after 1867).
    The report declared that Britain and the Dominions of Canada (that doesn't refer to the people, but those in government control), South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and the Irish Free State were "autonomous Communities within the British Empire, equal in status (it's saying that the countries are autonomous with each other but are still under British Control) in no way subordinate one to another in any aspect of their domestic or external affairs, though united by a common allegiance to the Crown (the Crown did control it all, but now the Crown is no more, thanks to Trump) and freely associated as members of the British Commonwealth of Nations." The report led directly to the British Act called the Statute of Westminster; the Act which legally recognizes the terms recommended in the 1926 Balfour Report. See an Encyclopedia for more on it.
