The Dominion Lands Act (long title: An Act Respecting the Public Lands of the Dominion) was an 1872 Canadian law that aimed to encourage the settlement of the Canadian Prairies and to help prevent the area being claimed by the United States. The Act was closely based on the U.S. Homestead Act of 1862, setting conditions in which the western lands could be settled and their natural resources developed. Dominion Lands Act ou Loi des terres fédérales (na totalidade Act Respecting the Public Lands of the Dominion em inglês e Acte concernant les terres de la Puissance em francês) é uma lei canadense de 1872 de incentivo a imigração. La Loi des terres fédérales de 1872 (connue aussi sous son titre officiel, Acte concernant les terres de la Puissance) établit les « règles » qui encadreront la colonisation et le développement de l’Ouest canadien. La Loi s’applique à l’ensemble du territoire que le Canada a acquis de la Compagnie de la Baie d'Hudson en 1870 (Terre de Rupert). La Loi des terres fédérales a reçu l'approbation royale le 14 avril 1872.

Dominion Lands Act ou Loi des terres fédérales (na totalidade Act Respecting the Public Lands of the Dominion em inglês e Acte concernant les terres de la Puissance em francês) é uma lei canadense de 1872 de incentivo a imigração. La Loi des terres fédérales de 1872 (connue aussi sous son titre officiel, Acte concernant les terres de la Puissance) établit les « règles » qui encadreront la colonisation et le développement de l’Ouest canadien. La Loi s’applique à l’ensemble du territoire que le Canada a acquis de la Compagnie de la Baie d'Hudson en 1870 (Terre de Rupert). Le gouvernement du Dominion veut asseoir son avenir politique et économique après la Confédération de 1867 ; il décide d'encourager la colonisation de l'ouest, en concédant des terres à des individus, des compagnies de colonisation, la Compagnie de la Baie d’Hudson, des municipalités, des groupes religieux et des sociétés de chemin de fer. La Loi des terres fédérales a reçu l'approbation royale le 14 avril 1872. La loi est inspirée de la loi américaine sur le peuplement des terres de 1862 (Homestead Act). Elle établit, notamment, l’éligibilité et les responsabilités des colons, elle définit les unités de mesure standard pour l’arpentage et la division des terres. La loi a été abrogée en 1929-1930, pour rétrocéder la responsabilité des terres et des ressources du gouvernement fédéral aux provinces du Manitoba, de la Saskatchewan et de l’Alberta. The Dominion Lands Act (long title: An Act Respecting the Public Lands of the Dominion) was an 1872 Canadian law that aimed to encourage the settlement of the Canadian Prairies and to help prevent the area being claimed by the United States. The Act was closely based on the U.S. Homestead Act of 1862, setting conditions in which the western lands could be settled and their natural resources developed. In 1871, the Government of Canada entered into Treaty 1 and Treaty 2 to obtain the consent of the indigenous nations from the territories set out respectively in each Treaty. The Treaties provided for the taking up of lands "for immigration and settlement". In order to settle the area, Canada invited mass emigration by European and American pioneers, and by settlers from eastern Canada. It echoed the American homestead system by offering ownership of 160 acres of land free (except for a small registration fee) to any man over 18 or any woman heading a household. They did not need to be British subjects, but had to live on the plot and improve it. The Act is controversial because the Canadian Government—established by Confederation only five years earlier—was extremely short on funds and never provided compensation to the indigenous nations for the use of the lands which the Government had decided to give away for free.
