Nova Scotia.
The four original provinces of Canadian Confederation in 1867 were Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia.
Nova Scotia was one of the original four provinces to join Canada in 1867.
Nova Scotia did not 'join' Canada. Nova Scotia was one of the original four provinces of Confederation.
Nova Scotia was one of the original four provinces when Canada came into being on July 1, 1867.
Canada's four original provinces at the time of Confederation (July 1, 1867) were: Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.
When British Columbia joined Confederation on July 20, 1871, the only other provinces were the original four plus Manitoba.
Well Canada was being made into territories and provinces when Confederation was being put into place as well as after. Geography is the land so, the split provinces becoming smaller provinces has something to do with it. John.A Macdonald was the biggest key part of Confederation. He and the other key parts of Confederation decided it was right to make the provinces smaller.
If your talking about provinces then the first four provinces that joined confederation (the original dominion of Canada) were Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. They all joined in 1867.
Ontario, Quebec, Alberta, and british Columbia were the first provinces to join confederation.
Canada was the first country to be created by legislation. The British North America Act (now the Constitution Act) created Canada as a federation, uniting Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and the pre-Confederation Province of Canada (see section 3). Upon Confederation, the pre-Confederation Province of Canada was severed into the Provinces of Québec and Ontario (see section 6). Therefore, although it is correct to say that Québec was one of Canada's four original provinces, it is incorrect to say that Québec 'joined' Confederation.
The 1867 'Constitution Act' instituted confederation of four provinces; Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, as "one Dominion under the name of Canada".
