Jacques Cartier, a French explorer, made three voyages to North America in the 16th century, primarily exploring the St. Lawrence River. His first voyage in 1534 took him to the Gulf of St. Lawrence, where he claimed the land for France. On his second voyage in 1535, he traveled upriver to present-day Montreal, establishing contact with Indigenous peoples and documenting the region's resources. His explorations laid the groundwork for future French claims to Canada.
