Canada East confederation in 1867 pros 1867?
There are 3 main reasons. ( There are more though..) =] 1. Trade. There is a reciprocity between US and Canada. So they are trading with less or no tax. This means that things came in cheaper for Canadians or people from West Canada. When US had a war ( between North and South) Britain supported the South side. This means Canada, too supported the South side. Sadly, the South side lost so now there is a weird connection between US and Britain. - Because of this. US called off the Reciprocity between the two countries. This means more expensive goods. 2. Fenians. The Fenians... I believe are Irish Americans. They were upset because British took over their land. They decided to invade Canada's border. People along the border lived in fear. If Canada East confed... Then they would have a bigger army. 3. A railway!!! Goods come from the British. Since Canada East isn't anywhere near Britain... The goods come from US, than from the US railways, they export the goods back to Canada. What's so bad about that you may ask... well they had HIGH taxes. If there was a railway across Canada, Then goods wouldn't have to go through US. =] More reasons for confederation. .More resources. .2 languages - French AND \English .Independence Like George Brown said... " Insead of 5 unimportant colonies... we would be one great nation."

Why were the Canadians afraid of the Fenians?
The Fenians were Irish Americans with the goal of taking Canada from Britain. They were violent (assassinated one of our top politicians) well trained and armed after the American Civil war and had attempted to take over Canada by invasion. The greatest threat from their success would be the American government response If the Fenians had managed to get the upper hand in upper Canada the Americans might take advantage of the situation by offering military support. Britain would almost certainly withdraw not wanting to risk an all out war to save their remaining colonies. Canadians would become Americans just as the French had become British in the 1700's. That didn't happen. Canada was able to handle the Fenian invasion and the Americans actually tracked them down when they retreated to the USA.
