Newforundland and Prince Edward Island rejected the Seventy-two resolutions because...
Newfoundland rejected confederation in 1869 because it preferred to remain a self-governing British colony due to concerns about losing control over its fisheries and potential financial burdens. Prince Edward Island rejected confederation in 1864 due to similar fears about losing control over local affairs and being burdened with the colony's debt.
PEI rejected Confederation because they were a small colony at the time and they were thriving very well on their own. If they were to join the other colonies in Confederation then they would have to pay higher taxes and were scared they would get overruled. So there was really no benefit they would get with joining Confederation except for trade which they had with Britain.

Confederation
This loose collection of states is known as a confederation. In a confederation, member states retain sovereignty and delegate limited powers to a central authority for common interests. An example of a confederation is the European Union before the Treaty of Lisbon.
Switzerland is an example of a country that has a confederation system of government, with power shared between the central government and its cantonal governments.
The first four provinces to form the Canadian Confederation in 1867 were Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia.
PEI and Newfoundland ... i think
Newfoundland and labrador ==================== Prince Edward Island (PEI) connects with New Brunswick via the Confederation Bridge. The mainland end of the Confederation Bridge is near the Nova Scotia border. The Woods Island ferry service runs between PEI and Nova Scotia as well. There is no direct connection between PEI and the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. It would appear to be more likely that PEI would be trading with New Brunswick and Nova Scotia ahead of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
