Background: The building has dual significance, as the focus of

150 years, and as the birthplace of Canada. It was designated a
National Historic Site in 1966 as a nationall significant
building, and again in 1980 as a court house of national
historic and architectural significance. The reasons for
national significance are that:
	-the building was the site of the Charlottetown Conference of
1864, which led to 			confederation in 1867;
	-it is a fine example of the neo-classical architectural style;
and
	-it is representative of the judicial institution of Prince
Edward Island.
The Province House has also been designated for its historic
value by the city of Charlottetown and the province of Prince
Edward Island.
