|Quebec Act of 1774
|>> to add from wikipedia:
{| class="wikitable"
|Quebec Act of 1774 is passed by the Parliament of Great Britain outlining how the Province of Quebec would be governed as colony, in an attempt to address damage to the economy/society of Quebec. Old boundaries were restored, free practice of Catholicism was guaranteed, and property and civil laws were to be decided according to traditional Canadian laws (thus preserving the Seigneurial system of New France for land ownership), with other matters of law left to English Common Law. The province was left to be governed by a legislative council, with no provision for an elected assembly.

|"Intolerable Acts" 1774
|from bing to sort
'''Intolerable Acts (1774):'''
 
* Also known as the '''Coercive Acts''', these were a series of '''four punitive measures''' enacted by the British Parliament in retaliation for acts of colonial resistance.
* Alongside the Intolerable Acts, the '''Quebec Act''' was also passed, which established a new administration for the territory ceded to Britain after the French and Indian War (1754–63).
* The main force of these actions fell on '''Boston''', which was perceived as the center of colonial hostility.
* The four Intolerable Acts were:
** '''Boston Port Act''': This act closed Boston’s harbor until restitution was made for the destroyed tea during the '''Boston Tea Party''' (1773).
** '''Massachusetts Government Act''': It abrogated Massachusetts’ colonial charter, reduced it to a crown colony, and replaced the elective local council with an appointive one.
** '''Administration of Justice Act''': Aimed at protecting British officials charged with capital offenses during law enforcement, it allowed them to be tried in England or another colony.
** '''Quartering Act''': This new version revived the indignation surrounding the earlier Quartering Act, allowing British troops to requisition unoccupied buildings for housing in all of British America12
