Joseph Howe opposed Confederation primarily because he believed it would undermine Nova Scotia's autonomy and local governance. He feared that centralizing power in a federal government would diminish the province's influence and resources, leading to potential neglect of local interests. Howe also advocated for responsible government and was concerned that Confederation would create an unresponsive bureaucracy. Ultimately, he championed the idea of stronger provincial rights and self-determination over joining a larger union.

Why did Americans want a stronger government than the one created by the Articles of Confederation?
Americans wanted a stronger government than the Articles of Confederation provided for a number of reasons. The Articles of Confederation lacked the necessary powers to govern effectively leaving it unable to enforce laws collect taxes or provide for a unified military. The Articles of Confederation also did not have any means of resolving disputes between the states. Furthermore the Articles of Confederation did not have a strong executive branch and could not create a unified currency. Finally the Articles of Confederation did not allow for the direct participation of citizens in the government and it was difficult to amend the Articles of Confederation.
