Usage of the phrase Dominion of Canada was employed as the country's name after 1867, predating the general use of the term dominion as applied to the other autonomous regions of the British Empire after 1907.
Fans of the phrase Dominion of Canada often point to this clause as proof that the country's official name is Dominion of Canada. However, the clause doesn't really say that, it simply says that Canada is a dominion (stop) and its name is Canada.
