Best Answer

France was first to settle and quick to move inland while England was later to the party and settled the available coast, including the coast of Hudson's Bay. This meant any expansion inland by England would have them moving into French claimed territory. That made the French and Indian war (Seven Years War) inevitable.

Even after the French and Indian war, the settlement locations played a role in conflicts. The English trading posts on the Hudson's Bay, run by the Hudson's Bay Company (HBC), found their business being hampered by French Voyagers who started trading inland, intercepting furs headed to the coast and the English company. The Northwest Company was eventually taken over by the HBC but the conflict has it's roots in settlements made by the French many years earlier.
