Of the Canadian provinces that existed at the time of Confederation, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and British Columbia did not immediately join.

The provinces of Manitoba, Alberta, and Saskatchewan did not exist at that time; they were part of Rupert's Land and the North-western Territory which were still British. Provision was made in section 146 of the British North America Act for the admission of such provinces and territories into Confederation.
