BNA was very different from Canada today. Before the 1850s, they had something that occurred called political deadlock. this was happening because the governments two opposing party's each had the same amount of members. this meant that they each had the same amount of votes, so no progress would be made. When confederation occurred there were now many different goverments with different numbers of members based on how large their population was. The larger population would have the most amount of seats which meant the most voting power. BNA had a different society from what we have today. they didnt have transportation, limited amount of jobs and woman wouldnt be aloud to vote.
