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.
Canada primarily traded natural resources and raw materials within the British Empire, including timber, fish, fur, and minerals. The fur trade, particularly beaver pelts, was a significant economic driver in the early colonial period. Additionally, Canada exported agricultural products, such as wheat and livestock, as the agricultural sector grew. This trade helped to strengthen economic ties and support the British Empire's expansion and industrialization.
