Official year of Confederation. The term Canada stopped referring to a colony (now Ontario and Quebec) and became the name of the new Confederation.
it was scared from usa
Nebraska was admitted into the Union on March 1, 1867 becoming the 37th state to join the Union.
1. Ontario did not exist prior to Confederation. Therefore it could not have "joined" Confederation. 2. Confederation occurred almost 150 years ago. It is a little late to be discussing such a question.
Wrong. First, Ontario did not exist as such until Confederation. Second, that part of the Province of Canada which had formerly been Upper Canada (and which formed the basis of today's Ontario) had the most to gain from Confederation and was the strongest supporter of Confederation. Third, although all provinces have benefited from Confederation, it is probably fair to say that Ontario has benefited the most from Confederation.
Ontario, Quebec, Alberta, and british Columbia were the first provinces to join confederation.
Quebec joined confederation in 1867- with the other first three provinces.
Nova Scotia was one of the original four provinces to join Canada in 1867.
The 1867 'Constitution Act' instituted confederation of four provinces; Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, as "one Dominion under the name of Canada".
The first province to join Confederation after 1867 was Manitoba, which joined in 1870.

The confederation of Canada was originally formed by the four provinces New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Quebec, and Ontario. Canada became a country in 1867 with its first four provinces, and now has ten provinces and three territories.
Quebec joined confederation July 1st 1867.
Saskatchewan and Alberta both became provinces on September 1, 1905. They were created by the Government of Canada out of the Northwest Territories. It would be correct to say they "entered" Confederation, but they did not "join" Canada because they did not exist prior to that date. The word "join" implies a prior existence.
Of the Canadian provinces that existed at the time of Confederation, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and British Columbia did not immediately join. The provinces of Manitoba, Alberta, and Saskatchewan did not exist at that time; they were part of Rupert's Land and the North-western Territory which were still British. Provision was made in section 146 of the British North America Act for the admission of such provinces and territories into Confederation.
The first four provinces to form the Canadian Confederation in 1867 were Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia.
