Immigration Act Established immigration offices. Also addressed the safety of immigrants on board ships and established the following categories for those barred entry to Canada : « idiotic, deaf or dumb, blind or infirm », for whom ship captains could be fined. Immigration agents were authorized to send these individuals back to their port of departure.
Naturalization Act After living in Canada for three years, an immigrant could submit an application to a court and receive a certificate of naturalization, if he or she were deemed to be of good character. When a man was naturalized as a British subject in Canada, his wife and children automatically received the same status.
