If New Brunswick hadn't joined Confederation in 1867, it likely would have faced economic and political challenges, potentially struggling to maintain stability and growth on its own. The absence of federal support could have hindered infrastructure development and trade, leading to slower economic progress. Additionally, the province may have seen increased tensions with neighboring regions, particularly with the United States and other Canadian provinces, affecting its strategic position in North America. Ultimately, New Brunswick's decision to join Confederation helped secure its political and economic future within a larger Canadian framework.

Why was albert James smith against the conferderation?

Albert James Smith was against the Confederation because he feared that the taxpayers of prosperous Brunswick (his home State) would be saddled with a major part of the debts and the cost of developing the Province of Canada. He also feared that in the new Confederation Brunswick would lose control over its own destiny. After the Confederation became fact, he reconciled himself with the idea and became the Minister of Fisheries in the Confederation government six years after its establishment.

Why didn't new Brunswick want to join the confederation?

Becuase then they knew that they would get linked between Britain and the US, with the intercolonial railway. And they thought that the US would want to get more land by going up to new brunswick and taking over, so if they when with Canada and the confederation they would get support from Canada.
