Black slaves wanted to come to Canada to seek freedom and escape slavery. Canada offered a safer haven for former slaves as it had abolished slavery earlier than the United States. Additionally, Canada had a growing abolitionist movement and provided opportunities for black individuals to establish communities and build a better life for themselves.
