Joining Confederation in 1867 had several drawbacks, particularly for some provinces and territories. Many feared the loss of local autonomy and control over regional affairs, as the central government gained more power. Additionally, smaller provinces felt overshadowed by larger ones, which could lead to unequal representation and resource distribution. Economic concerns also arose, as some regions worried about potential trade disadvantages and increased taxes to support national initiatives.
Canada East believed that joining the confederation would end up being a financial burden. The people were unable to see how it would benefit them, and felt the extra taxes would also present a problem.
Many First Nations opposed Confederation in 1867 because they feared it would lead to the erosion of their sovereignty and land rights. They were concerned that joining Canada would undermine their self-governance and control over their territories, as they had existing treaties and relationships with the British Crown. Additionally, there was a lack of consultation with Indigenous peoples during the Confederation process, leading to distrust and a sense of exclusion from the decision-making that affected their future.
The Civil War led to the fall of the Confederation. Also, the fact that its first president, Jefferson Davis was all but senile and made some very bad decisions. Also, General Sherman's drive to the sea.
The six colonies that were involved in the confederation of Canada in 1867 were Ontario (formerly Canada West), Quebec (formerly Canada East), New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and British Columbia. These colonies united to form the Dominion of Canada, aiming for greater political stability and economic strength. Newfoundland initially debated joining but ultimately opted out until 1949. The confederation set the foundation for the expansion and development of Canada as a nation.
