Canada started its own honors system with the Order of Canada in this year, marking the centennial of Confederation.

  1. 1957

  2. 1967

  3. 1977

  4. 1987

The correct answer is: 1967

The Canadian honors system, known as the Order of Canada, was established in 1967. This significant event was in celebration of Canada's centennial anniversary of Confederation. The other options listed are not correct as they fall either before or after this important year. Option A, 1957, is too early as Canada did not have its own national honors system at that time. Options C and D, 1977 and 1987 respectively, are both too late as they fall after Canada's centennial celebration. Therefore, B is the correct answer.
