The Acadians were forced to leave their lands during the Great Expulsion (1755-1764) due to British colonial policies aimed at consolidating control over Nova Scotia. The British viewed the Acadians, who were primarily French-speaking Catholics, as a potential threat during the ongoing conflict between Britain and France. As a result, thousands of Acadians were deported from their homes, leading to significant suffering and displacement. This event had lasting impacts on the Acadian community and their cultural identity.
