For the Micmac, the deportation was very traumatic. Many were already converted to Roman Catholic and intermarried with the French for several generations, many of the Acadian deportee's were close relatives, and it is difficult to imagine anything the British could have done which would have enraged the Micmac more. Mi'kmaq attacked the British army forts and the newly built settlements of the New England colonists. The forts that were intended to protect those settlements were attacked and burned. By 1756 the British in Nova Scotia were paying bounties for Micmac scalps, £30 for warrior scalps and £25 for women and children prisoners and the settlers were happily collecting as many as they could.
