Mostly loyalty to the British Empire since they might have been able to make a similar deal with the USA. The Deal included paying off debt, giving the elite special status or keeping their status, it also involved cash payments to individuals and citizens. They also wanted a railroad to ship their manufactured goods east. They forgot that it would also open their market to cheaper Eastern Canada goods.

What groups were involved in confederation?
The primary groups involved in the Canadian Confederation of 1867 were the Province of Canada (which was divided into Ontario and Quebec), New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. These provinces sought to unite for economic and defense reasons, particularly in response to threats from the United States. Over time, other provinces and territories joined the Confederation, including Prince Edward Island, British Columbia, and Manitoba, expanding the federation to its current form. Indigenous peoples were largely excluded from the negotiations and decisions surrounding Confederation.

What provinces did not join confederation in 1867 why?
In 1867, the provinces that did not join Confederation were British Columbia, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland, and the Northwest Territories. British Columbia was concerned about its geographical isolation and the lack of infrastructure, while Prince Edward Island hesitated due to financial concerns and the potential loss of its autonomy. Newfoundland opted out for similar reasons, preferring to maintain its independence and economic control. The Northwest Territories, largely unsettled and sparsely populated, were not yet ready for self-governance or inclusion in Confederation.
Why did British Columbia join Confederation in 1871?
Why indeed? On the surface the British Columbia colony had a much better offer from the USA. They had closer ties, both culturally and economically with the USA and the USA had the promise of greater power and wealth. But the people of British Columbia, other than those with power within a British dominated political system, had little say in the matter. British Columbia joined to benefit a few political elite and have yet to hold a proper vote on joining Confederation. BC is not unique in this way, many other provinces joined for similar reasons. In the case of BC there is a myth that they joined to get a railway. At the time BC would have liked a railway but their largest trading partner was south, not west. When the rail arrived from the west local manufacturing companies could not compete with the preferred status Eastern companies had with Eastern companies and many local BC companies went out of business. The real need for the railway was Canadian. Canada needed the railway to quickly transport troops to the West to address the all too often violent resistance to Canadian rule.
