to take the fur trade away from the french
Both the French and the English colonies wanted to control the fur trade.
The traders who established rights to the Canada fur trade were primarily French and later British. The French began exploring and trading in Canada in the early 17th century, establishing a significant fur trade network with Indigenous peoples. After the British gained control of Canada following the Treaty of Paris in 1763, they continued to develop the fur trade, leading to the establishment of companies like the Hudson's Bay Company.
Before the British took control, the fur trade in North America was primarily dominated by the French. The French established extensive trade networks and alliances with Indigenous peoples, which facilitated the exchange of goods, particularly beaver pelts. Key players included companies like the French Compagnie des Indes Occidentales and individuals such as Pierre Radisson and Medard des Groseilliers. Their influence waned following the British victories in the Seven Years' War, leading to British dominance in the fur trade.
