Newfoundland didn't join confederation in 1867 because they were wealthy from their fishing and lumber industry. But in the 1930's during the great depression the world cut back on trade and Newfoundland could no longer afford to pay for its hospitals, schools and other services therefore that is why Newfoundland joined confederation.
Officially in the second and decisive referendum held in Newfoundland 48% of its citizens voted against union with Canada. In reality it was more likely a greater number than that.

Initially, the provinces that were against Confederation in 1867 included British Columbia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland. Concerns centered around issues such as the loss of political autonomy, economic uncertainty, and the fear of being overshadowed by larger provinces. Prince Edward Island, for instance, was particularly worried about its small size and limited resources, while Newfoundland ultimately decided to remain independent until it joined Confederation in 1949.

Newfoundland's initial reaction to Confederation in 1867 was one of skepticism and concern. Many residents feared the loss of autonomy and were worried about the economic implications, particularly regarding taxation and governance. A significant portion of the population voted against joining Canada in a 1869 referendum, leading to a prolonged debate before Newfoundland eventually joined Confederation in 1949. Over time, the perception shifted as economic benefits and infrastructure improvements became more apparent.
