Jacques Cartier was an early European explorer of the New World. Like many explorers of their day, they pursued a strategy of finding a shorter passage way to the riches of the Far East. Henry Hudson, as one example did the same thing. Hudson at first believed the river named after him was a passage to the East.
In the early 1500's Cartier ventured under the flag of France and believed he found a way to Asia. This of course was impossible so he did help France establish colonies in the New World.
