Technically, Canada East did not join Confederation. Canada East and Canada West were merely geographical designations, not political entities. The pre-Confederation Province of Canada was the political entity that joined Confederation. Immediately upon Confederation, the Province of Canada was divided into the Province of Québec and the Province of Ontario.

the first four colonies to join confederation were Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Canada East and Canada West.
Canada East was not a political entity. It was part of the pre-Confederation Province of Canada. The Province of Canada was one of the three colonies that joined to create Canada, the first country to be created by legislation. The other two colonies were Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. Confederation occurred on July 1, 1867. Immediately upon Confederation, the Province of Canada was severed into the Provinces of Ontario and Québec.
Canada West didn't join confederation. It was the name given to what had been Upper Canada before it joined with Lower Canada to become the Province of Canada. This united province then confederated with Nova Scotia and New Brunswick in 1867 and was split into Ontario and Quebec. One of the reasons Canada sought confederation with its neighbouring colonies was to resolve its own political deadlock between the primarily English Canada West and the primarily French Canada East. Other influences included the desire to build an inter-colony rail road, as well as the desire to strengthen British North America against attack by the United States.
Canada East did not exist as a separate entity. It was the former Lower Canada. From 1842 to 1867 was part of the pre-Confederation Province of Canada. As such, it was a largely self-governing British colony.
Canada East and Canada West were not "created." They were merely geographical designations within the pre-Confederation Province of Canada.
