Postage stamps and postal history of Canada

The postal and philatelic history of Canada concerns the territories which have formed Canada. Before Canadian confederation, the colonies of British Columbia and Vancouver Island, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Newfoundland issued stamps in their own names.
The postal history of Canada falls into four major periods: French control (1604–1763), British control (1763–1841), colonial government control (1841–1867), and the Dominion of Canada, since 1867.〔(A Chronology of Canadian Postal History )〕
== Origins ==
It was at St. John's, Newfoundland on 3 August 1527 that the first known letter was sent from North America.〔Paul O'Neill (2003) ''The Oldest City, The Story of St. John's, Newfoundland'' (p. 116) ISBN 0-9730271-2-6〕 While in St. John's, John Rut had written a letter to King Henry VIII on his findings and his planned voyage. The letter in part reads as follows: "''Pleasing your Honourable Grace to heare of your servant John Rut with all his company here in good health thanks be to God.''" The conclusion of the letter reads: "''...the third day of August we entered into a good harbour called St. John and there we found Eleuen Saile of Normans and one Brittaine and two Portugal barks all a fishing and so we are ready to depart towards Cap de Bras that is 25 leagues as shortly as we have fished and so along the Coast until we may meete with our fellowe and so with all diligence that lyes in me toward parts to that Ilands that we are command at our departing and thus Jesu save and keepe you Honourable Grace and all your Honourable Reuer. In the Haven of St. John the third day of August written in hast 1527, by your servant John Rut to his uttermost of his power''."〔Daniel Woodley Prowse (1895) ''A History of Newfoundland'' (p. 40-41) ISBN 0-9730271-1-8〕
