The expedition in search of the Northwest Passage from France was led by Jacques Cartier in the 16th century. Cartier made three voyages to Canada between 1534 and 1542, exploring the St. Lawrence River and claiming territory for France. His endeavors laid the groundwork for future exploration and colonization in North America, although he did not find the Northwest Passage.
