Confederation helped the principle of representation by population (rep by pop) in Canada by establishing a more balanced political structure among the provinces. It allowed for the creation of a federal government that could more accurately reflect the population distribution across different regions. This led to the inclusion of a House of Commons where seats were allocated based on population, ensuring that larger provinces had a greater voice in the legislative process. Ultimately, confederation helped address regional disparities and promote a fairer representation of citizens in governance.

Why would people in Canada east object to geogre brown demand for representational to population?
Dealing with minorities in democracies have always been a challenge and at the time Canada East was the minority. When Canada West had a lower population than Canada East there was no talk of Rep by Pop because they enjoyed an equal number of seats in the Canadian parliament. Canada West started talking about Rep by Pop only after their population became larger than Canada East. Canada West's Rep by Pop was a clear effort to marginalize or dominate Canada East. Interestingly Canadian history is repeating itself in the Proportional Representation movement. Presented as a solution to a first past the post system in which the winner gets dictatorial power for up to 5yrs it can only disenfranchise many Canadian Nations and cultures. Canada East saw that in Rep by Pop, we can see it today in Prop Rep.
Did John Dickinson help write the Articles of Confederation?

Why was rep by pop favoured by Canada west but not by Canada east?
The main groups of the British, Irish, and Scottish Protestant people of Canada West began to build a stronger population against the French-Canadian Catholic people of Canada East. They wanted to build a government based on themselves; therefore they supported Representation by Population or Rep By Pop.
Why do people hate the rep by pop idea?
because the government gives the city money that equals the population on a specific area (mostly a city)
Why might the role of the senate to represent minorities be important to governance in Canada?
Right now Canada's federal system does not represent minorities, or regions outside of Ontario and Quebec very well. Ontario has a history of "Rep by Pop" which is basically a claim that minorities or rather their concerns, should be subservient to the majority. Which would be OK except Canada is a Confederation with many regions, cultures, histories and members, all of them with less people than Ontario and Quebec. The Senate could be used to give equal power to all members of Confederation and make the Confederation more sustainable. Of course that would require those currently winning from Confederation to give up their special status and power, and why would they do that?
