Settle it.

1. Weren't interested in railways because they travel by sea.

2.Cost of buying goods from Canada would be higher than buying goods from Britain because of the terffis.

3. Ottawa would be to far away for Newfoundlanders to have much influence on government poilicy.

4. Made a living by the fishing industry or seal hunting. Also sold ropes, hooks, canvas, salt, barrels and Sou' Westers to people who go fishing.

5. Nova Scotia was worried about the new steamships. They fear that these steamships may some day take way all of the business from there wooden sailing ships.

6. Nova Scotia had no railway connection between Nova Scotia and Canada East. Pros:

Railway would be paid off.

Would have protection against fenian attack.

Cons:

Cost of goods would be higher in Canada rather than in Britain because of tariffs.

They wouldn't have any say in choices made by Canada. The cons were that New Brunswick would lose control after Confederation. After Sir Samuel Leonard Tilley was re-elected into office the people had a compleatly different mind set. They were afraid of the Americans and wanted a strong army behind them. There were economic benefits if they formed confederation with Canada
