Слайд 7History
First Nation and Inuit traditions maintain that
indigenous people have

resided on their lands since the
beginning of time, while archaeological

studies support
a human presence in the northern Yukon from 26,500
years ago, and in southern Ontario from 9,500 years ago.
Europeans first arrived when the Vikings settled briefly at
L'Anse aux Meadows around AD 1000; following the
failure of that colony, there was no further attempt at North
American exploration until 1497, when John Cabot
explored Canada's Atlantic coast for England, followed by
Jacques Cartier in 1534 for France.

Слайд 8Name of Canada
The name Canada comes from a St.

Lawrence Iroquoian word, kanata, meaning "village" or "settlement". In 1535,

indigenous inhabitants of the present-day Quebec City region used the word to direct French explorer Jacques Cartier towards the village of Stadacona. Cartier later used the word Canada to refer not only to that particular village, but also the entire area subject to Donnacona (the chief at Stadacona); by 1545, European books and maps had begun referring to this region as Canada.

Слайд 9History
The English established fishing outposts in Newfoundland around 1610 and

colonized the Thirteen Colonies to the south. A series of

four Intercolonial Wars erupted between 1689 and 1763. Mainland Nova Scotia came under British rule with the Treaty of Utrecht (1713); the Treaty of Paris (1763) ceded Canada and most of New France to Britain following the Seven Years' War.
