Coureur de bois, meaning "runner of the woods" in French, refers to the French-Canadian fur traders and explorers who ventured into the North American wilderness during the 17th and 18th centuries. They played a crucial role in the fur trade, establishing relationships with Indigenous peoples and navigating the vast terrains of Canada and the northern United States. Often depicted as adventurous and rugged, coureurs de bois were instrumental in the expansion of French influence in North America. Their legacy is a significant part of Canadian history and culture.
