British attitudes changing were one of the factors leading to Confederation. It was when the British North Americans (Canadians) were applying tariffs (taxes) to all British goods in order to make a bigger profit. The British were upset because this would raise the cost for British items. The Little Englanders (a small, but vocal group in Great Britain) and John Bright wanted Canada to become their own country because they didn't want to waste their money on them, and they didn't want to support them any more.
