The new Dominion of Canada acquired the territories of Rupert's Land and the North-Western Territory from the Hudson's Bay Company in 1870.

Rupert's Land and the North-Western Territory were ceded to Canada in 1870.

In 1870, when HBC's trade monopoly was abolished, it ceded Rupert's Land — an area of approximately 3. 9 million km² — to Canada as part of the Northwest Territories.

The remainder of modern-day Canada was made up of Rupert's Land and the North-Western Territory ( both of which were controlled by the Hudson's Bay Company and sold to Canada in 1870 ) and the Arctic Islands, which were under direct British control and became a part of Canada in 1880.

The Dominion acquired Rupert's Land from the Hudson's Bay Company and the North-Western Territory from the Crown in 1869, and took ownership on December 1 of that year, merging them and naming them North-West Territories ( though final payment to the Hudson's Bay Company did not occur until 1870 ).

Rupert's Land, or Prince Rupert's Land, was a territory in British North America, consisting mostly of the Hudson Bay drainage basin that was nominally owned by the Hudson's Bay Company for 200 years from 1670 to 1870, although numerous aboriginal groups lived in the same territory and disputed the sovereignty of the area.

In 1869, Rupert's Land was annexed to Canada as the Northwest Territories, and in 1870 a part of the NWT, Manitoba, became a province of Canada.

In 1870 Canada gained control of the Rupert's Land and the North-Western Territory from the Hudson's Bay Company.

The depot remained in company hands after the acquisition of Rupert's Land by the Dominion of Canada in 1870.

On October 21, 1870 Lieutenant Governor Adams George Archibald appointed Francis as a Legislative Councillor in Rupert's Land and the Northwest Territories.

The transfer occurred in 1869 and was consummated in 1870 by the payment of a consideration of £ 300, 000 ( 27 million in 2010 ) to the Hudson's Bay Company, as mandated by the Rupert's Land and North-Western Territory Order of 1870.

The Council of Assiniboia was, from 1821 until 1870, the appointed administrative body of Rupert's Land.
