520 |a"Prior to European settlement and conquest the geographical territories that today belong to the Canadian state were occupied by many nations aboriginal to the northern reaches of the continent. In the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries two of the great powers of Europe — France and the United Kingdom — laid claim to this portion of the 'new world'. Each encouraged trade and settlement in North America. Each made alliances and the British concluded treaties with the native peoples who lived in the regions of initial contact. Each appropriated the 'newfound' lands, defeating, obliterating, containing, or pushing the native inhabitants of these lands westwards. Each fought the other for control of the continent with the British gaining final victory by the middle of the eighteenth century."--p. 2.
