By 1860, the British North American colonies exhibited significant differences in economy, society, and governance. The Atlantic colonies, like Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, were primarily resource-based, focusing on fishing and timber, while the more industrialized province of Canada West (Ontario) was experiencing growth in manufacturing and agriculture. Additionally, the cultural composition varied, with a mix of English, French, and Indigenous populations influencing local governance and social structures. These differences contributed to varying attitudes toward confederation and relations with the United States.
