Population and Settlement French Regime: Canada's Colonization by the French.

 Population and Settlement French Regime: Canada's Colonization by the French.

        In 1534, Jacques Cartier explored the St. Lawrence River region in search for the passageway to the route of Asia. France lost interest in the region when Jacques Cartier was not able to find the route of Asia. In 1667, the population was starting to increases in the French colony thanks to the birth incentives and immigration policies. The fisherman sailed the golf of St. Lawrence to communicate withe the Natives and trade withe them.

        In the beginning of the 17th century, the french settled in Canada, they requested permission from the Native's if they can settle at their territory. The French soon realized that they required the Native people's assistance to settled in North America. In 1608, the explorer Samuel de Champlain found Quebec in order to facilitate fur trade with the Amerindians. Chaplain put Sieur de Laviolette, in charger to find a second settlement, in 1634. Sieur de Maisonneuve, founded Ville-Marie close to the Iroquois village of Hochelage along with order.

The Relationships between the French and the Amerindians was great. Since, they traded fur with each other. Later on the French had to go at war withe the Iroquois because for the territory. The war between the Iroquois and the french lasted at least a century. The number of Native population decreased drastically during the french regime. The traditional conflicts between the Europeans, the Amerindians became violent because everyone wanted to trade with the Europeans who gradually supplies the Amerindian with firearm.

The Quebec Charter Values

 The Quebec Charter Values

I think that the Quebec new law it’s really disrespectful to other culture because, I think that people will not have a chance to talk with other people what they believe. And I think that people will need to respect what people believe it not their decision it our decisions. I think that many people agree what the party of Quebecois are saying and other‘s disagree.

I will wander how the Muslims will go to work or be in a public place. And I think that many Muslims will lose their jobs and not be able to work at any single place that is in Quebec. And the population will decrease in Quebec. And many immigrants will probably go to the United States of America or move to another state in Canada. And I think that today, we don’t have enough freedom in Quebec that did before.

And I think that the best thing to do is to have the freedom to vote or to not create that law. And I wonder how people will socialise with other people at school or in public place. And I am no talking about only Muslims’ I am talking about other religions that are in Quebec. And I am hearing that there is many people that are saying that people are allow believing at their own beliefs and I think that is true because, how will Christians will go to teach other people about God or Jesus. And what I have learnt is that the government is still debating to change the law.

Today in the news, I have heard that little by little people are starting to live from Quebec to other places and it will still happen if the party of Quebecois will not act fast. But what I don’t understand is that why immigrants are still come here in Quebec if they know what is going on. Probably some of the people know or some don’t. This week I heard that many Muslims, the Jewish, and turbinate are protesting to the party of Quebecois to have the freedom of religions. And I heard that in the bus two people were fighting about their religion. So I think that this is wrong because, I feel that they are insulting their self’s. So I think that the party of Quebecois are wrong doing this new law.

A people History: Episode 2

I think that this video was interesting because, many Europeans when they came to the new world they were at war with the natives and some of the natives  were trading with them. This reminds me of a book that I read last year with my friends at school the book it call "Marce". It talks about people going to Marce and the merchants got a diseases from them. And I think that it is the story goes with the video that I saw because, when the Europeans came to the new world the natives got a deceases and went up to the mountain to stay away from them. So, that what I think.

A people History: When the world Began part 7

After seeing this video, it reminded me of Tarzan because, Tarzan was kept with the gorillas and then he had a choice to go to England or stay. But in this case this European person was kept with the natives and he had no choice to married a native women, but later on the English came to rescue him. And the natives release him to go back home.

A people History: When the world began part 6

In this part of the video, I learn that the king of the native in Canada had left with the Europeans and never came back. And I learn that every time that the Europeans had left to Canada they were always on peppered for their voyage it was because it was to cold the winter and many man did not survive. The Europeans had to trade with the natives to survive.

A people History: When the world began part 5

I think that half of the story of part 5 it is really sad because the Europeans, kidnap most of the native women, and some of the women they all died because of suffering. and the other half I found it interesting how could the French and the natives could communicate with each other and trade. This part of the video reminded me of a Spanish TV show. Since, this part of the video their were kidnaping native women, but in the Spanish TV show you could see that Pirates were kidnaping women to.

A people History: When the world Began part 4

What I understand about this video is that how Canada was discovered and it was all the names of natives territory of North America. This reminded me about last year because we had to learn about the Europeans trying to fined a new route for Asia but instead they found the new world.

A people's History: when the world Began part 3

The title war for me it means having to countries that are fighting for freedom. But in this case is two territory's that are fighting for more territory. But today, when a person crosses the wrong territory they just put him in prison or put him to death if he did something really bad. But in the video they will just torcher him into he dies.

A people's History: When the world Began part 2

After I saw this video, what I found interesting is that how did the Inuit survive all the ice age. If I was at their situation, I will probably will  not survive the ice age. I think that man and women role it is to complicate to go hunting, or take care of the children, and their house because of the snow. To do all the things that the Inuit does, they will need to have many of energy.

A people history: When the world Began part 1

The red natives reminded me of the movie Pocahontas, because their skin color was red and they had many beliefs. Both of them had many things in common like they believed in many gods, man went out to hunt and bring the food to the village and women had a role. And it was that women had to stay at their tent to take care of their children. I think that Pocahontas and a people history had many things in common.

History homework / September 4 2013

1.Linguistic families and territory

In the 1500s, the province of Quebec had a linguistic families that they separate in three different parts of Quebec which are, the Inuit, Algonquin, and Iroquoian.  The Inuit lived northern Quebec, Algonquin lived center of Quebec, and the Iroquoian lived southern Quebec.

2.Worldview of native people

 The natives are really religious at what they believe. They have many different God, they believe that their were spirits that are in the sky. They practice the religion everyday. Man and women have their own responsibility to do. They all communicate by drawing pictures on the wall.

3.roles of men and women in:

Algonquin: The role of man was responsible for hunting and fishing. Sometimes man had to travel to a long distance to hunt for food. The role of women were responsible of cut animals skin and made them to cloth for themselves. They always stayed at their house to look at their children.

Iroquoian: The role of man was responsible of hunting and they were warriors to protect their village.But, the women stayed at their long house, to take care of the children, cooking, and made clothing for their family.

4.social and cultural aspects common to all native society

The Iroquoian and Algonquin are one of the cultures that are non existent any more. But the Inuit it is still Here. Today, their is allot of natives that have different Gods for their lives. Man and women had responsibility's to do. All native had their own leader to follow, he was the one that made all the right things to do.

5.Cultural consequences of encounters with Europeans

The Europeans had problems to transport food, gold, ect. To bring it to Quebec to start a new life. The Native were not really happy to see people from Europe because, they are bringing diseases to the natives. So, the natives felt that the Europeans had to leave back were they came from.
