Jacques Cartier, the French explorer, landed on the shores of what is now Canada during his voyages in the 1530s. His first significant landing was on the Gaspé Peninsula in 1534, where he claimed the land for France. He later explored the St. Lawrence River, reaching present-day Montreal and Quebec City, which he named "Hochelaga" and "Stadacona," respectively. Cartier's expeditions laid the groundwork for French colonization in North America.
