During Jacques Cartier's first voyage to the New World, he discovered the Acadian Peninsula, in present-day New Brunswick, as well as Gaspé, Anticosti Island, and the Magdeline Islands, in present-day Québec. Cartier also discovered that the Isle of Newfoundland was, in fact, an island.
Jacques Cartier was a French explorer of Breton origin who claimed what is now Canada for France. Jacques Cartier discovered Prince Edward Island in 1534. He was the first explorer of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Jacques Cartier built a fort at Stadacona, where Quebec City is now located. Further up the St. Lawrence, Cartier had Indian guides lead him to Hochelaga or Montreal. Jacques Cartier was the first explorer to chart the St. Lawrence River.
On Cartier's second voyage to the new world, he went as far upstream as present-day Montréal. There he discovered that it was impossible to get any further upstream because the way was blocked by the Lachine Rapids. Therefore, it was then clear that there was no navagable water route through the continent of North America.
Jacques Cartier was sponsored by France.
