The Fur Traders came to New France to build Trading Posts, also to bann anyone else from trading Fur so that they could have all the money from all the fur in New France. The Fur Traders where mean nasty people and would not let anyone they could get their hands on make a profit off of Fur Trading. If they found someone who was Trading Fur they would give them a warning to stop and if they didn't, they would sneak into their houses at night and kill them and most of the time their families too. sometimes they would be so mad that they would kill their neighbors to just fo the sake of killing someone. Those where very dark days.
