The French lost Acadia to the British primarily due to ongoing conflicts in North America, particularly the French and Indian War (1754-1763). The British sought to expand their territories and perceived Acadia as strategically important. In 1710, during the War of the Spanish Succession, British forces captured Port Royal, the capital of Acadia, which marked the beginning of British dominance in the region. Subsequent treaties and military campaigns solidified British control, leading to the eventual formal cession of Acadia in the Treaty of Paris in 1763.
They gave it to the British.
this is when the british and the french were fighting for a cadia. the mi kmaq also wanted acadia but they werent in the picture.
the British thought the French were were secretly loyal to France so they forced them to leave
Acadia
The Acadians came from Arcadia an ancient region of what is now the country of Greece and they were not removed by the British.Acadians can also refer to french colonists who settled in Canada maritime provinces. Acadia was a distinctly separate colony of New France (and separate from Quebec). When the French were at war with the British the British took over Acadia to prevent the French colonists supporting France. When the people would not take an oath supporting the British, the British administration deported approximately 11,500 Acadians from the maritime region to prevent them aiding the French.

Acadia is where the great deportation took place. The french gave over Acadia in a treaty and kept their small cod fishery.
The Oath of Allegiance is a oath that when war came to the British the Acadians would have to fight for the British. If they did not sign the oath, they would be deported to another French colony or somewhere else.
Acadia was in the middle and whoever controlled Acadia had a big advantage over the other. plus supply ships had to pass Acadia so whoever owned Acadia could sabotage the others supply.
there were three deferent places that all belonged to new France but after they lost the war at beauport sore to the British they were forced to give up one of them they decided Acadia because they weren't getting alot of supplies from Acadia that they could survive on such as ( live stock .....) so they signed a treaty for Acadia. the British army came over to Acadia and told the Acadiens to sign a oath of alligence pledging that they would obey the Governor of the British army. the acadians didnt want to sighn the oath of alliegents so were there for lets just say kicked out from acadia they had to leave the only thing that they could take was there personal belongings they couldn't take any thing from their crops at all.
