Champlain was trying to find a trade route to the West Indies but came across Canada instead. Then, King Henry IV sent him back to Canada to explore and trade there. Sieur de Monts helped Champlain out on one of his voyages and the Natives helped out along the way too.

UMMM.... ACTUALLY : Champlain wanted to be an explorer because his father was. and he was an explorer because the King of France sent him to claim lands in the new world which was North America and Canada

Actually, you both are quite right. His uncle and father was explorers and Samuel De Champlain wanted to become just like them. They inspired him to to become an explorer. He also wanted to support France since it was a poor country with no way to gain wealth until Samuel De Champlain went to Quebec. He was actually a geographer for King Henry IV.
