Where did the acadians live?
It depends on which land you are talking about. French settlers became known as Acadians by making their home in part of Nova Scotia in Canada, around 1605. They were removed from their homes and deported by the ruling English from Nova Scotia in 1755. This is the year they began to arrive in Louisiana, and the word "Acadian" evolved into "Cajun". this is wrong Before the 1600s there was no group of people known as Acadians. The group originated in the area of what is now Nova Scotia. So Acadians could not come to Canada as they didn't exist before Canada. The second contributor is splitting hairs a little. Of course there was no country called Canada when the first French settlers arrived on this continent. Take the spirit of the question, please. Actually, the first French settlement in this part of the world was at the St. Croix River, which is in Maine now. Acadians, who were (and are) distinct from the Quebecois of what became Lower Canada, could be found in what is now Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island (then called Ile St. Jean). Because the French crown pretty much left them to their own devices in many regards, they developed a sense of community and social identity that was, indeed, distinct from their confreres up the St. Lawrence.
