The tenth province to join Confederation in Canada was British Columbia, which became a part of Canada on July 20, 1871. Its entry into Confederation was influenced by the promise of a transcontinental railway, which would connect it to the rest of Canada. British Columbia's inclusion helped to solidify Canada's western expansion and integration.
The last province to join Confederation in Canada was Newfoundland, which became a part of Canada on March 31, 1949. This decision followed a referendum in which the people of Newfoundland chose to join Canada rather than remain a separate dominion or revert to British rule. Newfoundland's entry into Confederation marked a significant expansion of Canada, bringing in its unique culture and history.
