Only one province joined the Canadian Confederation in 1871 and that was British Columbia, previously a British colony.
The independent Eastern Canadian colonies of Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia chose to become Canada in 1867. PEI and Newfoundland joined later on. In 1870 the UK transferred ownership of the mostly uncolonized land known as Rupert's Land to Canada from the Hudson's bay company. After this, war's were fought to subjugate the mixed European and native Metis peopled societies that had emerged in Rupert's land unofficially, and a compromise regarding this led to the emergence of Manitoba and later around the turn of the century Alberta and Saskatchewan were settled by Europeans and Eastern Canadians, so they were always part of Canada and didn't have to join the federation. BC joined in 1871 of its own accord.
Germany was fractured into warring Provinces in the Religious Wars of the Protestant Reformation. Protestant and Catholic Provinces were not reunited until Otto Von Bismarck in 1870. He immediately embarked on Wars of Aggrandizement against France 1871, Austria, and against Poland.

The dominion of Canada contained four provinces: Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia.=====================================================================Technically, only three provinces formed Canada. They were Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and the pre-Confederation Province of Canada.

Canada first became a colony in 1497 when John Cabot first landed and "claimed" the land in the name of the King. Canada officially became the "federal Dominion of Canada" on July 1, 1867, marking the end of British rule over the Head of Government (the British monarch is the Head of State in Canada to this day). So.... around 1497-1867.
They wanted to join Canada because: ~they wanted Canada to pay for the colonies debts. ~they wanted Canada to make payments to the new province every year.they wanted to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Prince Edward Island (PEI) became the seventh province, but only three provinces have actually 'joined' Confederation. The British Parliament created Canada by the British North America (BNA) Act. The BNA Act created two provinces out of the pre-Confederation Province of Canada (Ontario and Quebec) and united them with New Brunswick and Nova Scotia as the four original provinces. None of the original four actually 'joined,' so none can claim to be 'first.' The BNA Act provided for the Parliament of Canada to admit British colonies as provinces in Confederation, and to create provinces out of the North West Territories. The colonies admitted as provinces were British Columbia (1871), PEI (1873) and Newfoundland (1949). The Parliament of Canada created Manitoba (1870), as well as Saskatchewan and Alberta (both 1905).
Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and the pre-Confederation Province of Canada were joined together to create Canada on July 1, 1867. At the same time, the pre-Confederation Province of Canada was divided into two provinces: Québec and Ontario.
