Describe the influence of the French and the English on the language and religion of Canada. b. Explain how Canada became an independent nation. From European Contact to Quebec’s Independence Movement • The First Nations are the native peoples of Canada. • They came from Asia over 12,000 years ago. • They crossed the Bering Land Bridge that joined Russia to Alaska. • There were 12 tribes that made up the First Nations. • The Inuit are one of the First Nation tribes. • They still live in Canada today. • In 1999, Canada’s government gave the Inuit Nunavut Territory in northeast Canada. • The first explorers to settle Canada were Norse invaders from the Scandinavian Peninsula. • In 1000 CE, they built a town on the northeast coast of Canada and established a trading relationship with the Inuit. • The Norse deserted the settlement for unknown reasons. • Europeans did not return to Canada until almost 500 years later… • The Italian explorer, John Cabot, sailed to Canada’s east coast in 1497. • Cabot claimed an area of land for England (his sponsor) and named it “Newfoundland”. •Jacques Cartier sailed up the St. Lawrence River in 1534. •He claimed the land for France. •French colonists named the area “New France”. • In 1608, Samuel de Champlain built the first permanent French settlement in New France— called Quebec. • The population grew slowly. • Many people moved inland to trap animals. • Hats made of beaver fur were in high demand in Europe.
