How did Canada increase autonomy?

Canada increased its autonomy through a series of legislative acts and constitutional changes, most notably the Statute of Westminster in 1931, which granted full legislative independence from the UK. This was further solidified by the patriation of the Constitution in 1982, which included the Constitution Act and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, allowing Canada to amend its own constitution without British approval. These steps marked a significant shift towards self-governance and the establishment of a distinct Canadian identity.
