Please explain the issue you experienced in the most condensed way possible
Newfoundland and Labrador should not be a requirement for Canadian confederation.

Please explain how to reproduce the issue
Adding the state of Newfoundland (and Labrador) to your country is currently a requirement for the Canadian Confederation event. However Newfoundland was still part of Great Britain when the game ends in 1936. Newfoundland joined Canada after WW2 in 1949. In theory it should remain part of Great Britain even by game end.

Is there anything else you think could help us identify/replicate the issue?

Newfoundland isn't mandatory for Confederation - you only need any 9 of the listed states. I assume it's in there if you want to play ahistorically, or if the Americans decided to take a single piece of land in Saskatchewan, thus preventing you from creating Canada.

Wasn't aware that was 9. I'll check that out again. Thanks!

OK, I get the idea, it's just weirdly a-historical.

One issue that needs fixing is the high possibility that the US takes 2 states of Alberta through no fault of its own as an AI, and the Hudson Bay Company, and British Columbia, never ever integrate those states.
But annexing your subject costs a lot of infamy
So you're stuck either way by the game mechanics tieing your hands behind your back for the Journal entry

My only complaint; address this through a decision that can occur past a certain date, or something, to allow me to create Canada as easily as I can Australia

Does Canada have releasable nations?
