They helped them survive winter by giving them a tea with the leaves of northern white cedar tree would cure scurvy which helped them survive the long winter.

Also Chief Donnacona's 2 sons went to France with Cartier and earned French. This allowed them to be interpreters for the Iroquois and the French.
