Imperial Dominance In Canada

British empire was in control of Canada, “a deep and complex transformation.” (Calloway, 112) British empire envision North America with field of action while the French spent the next two decade revenging on their loss with the Seven Years’ War and Treaty of Paris. Even though the French did not succeed in North America, eventually they migrated towards large swaths of Canada, The Great Lakes, and Mississippi Valley using their social systems and culture to survive. “The Interior French”, (Calloway, 123) were French-Canadian who lived beyond the Great Lakes country. They had formed an alliance within the Indians and having a good reputation with dealing goods. Louisiana went to Spain eventually, a few French migrated to Louisiana as a Peace of Paris. More settlers were French in Louisiana during the Spanish era instead of the French. Louisiana changes hand in Paris a couple times in 1763.

The French were less successful then both the Spanish and the British because they were late to jump to the gun on the race to claim land in the new world, by time the French stared colonizing the new world the British had already settled on the east coast, and the Spanish in south America, so basically they had to take what is now known as Canada by default, because that is all that was left.

The French and Indian war was fought between Great Britain and France from 1754 to 1763. Also known as the Seven Year’s War, this confrontation eventually erupted into an all out worldwide conflict. Its effects were not only immediate but long term. Although the colonies were not directly tied to the war, it greatly impacted them as well as modern America.

To begin with, the French and Indian War created political changes between Britain and the colonies. After the war, Britain saw they needed to have a stronger relationship with the Native Americans in the colonies (Doc B). The Natives didn’t always have a stable relationship with the British during the war and Britain wanted to ensure the Natives would not become aggressive and attack them. The war and gaining of new land in North America, also showed England

The Seven Year’s War impacted colonial development in Canada as the British gained control of the majority of Canada’s land and had dominant power due to their victory against the French colonies. As a result of the war and the Treaty, it ended French political and cultural influence in Canada. It also had influenced colonial development as people were to abide the laws and constitutions developed by British with British Crown being the head of state. Further, Aboriginal people were excluded from the Treaty of Paris as lands were divided with no provision for the Aboriginal people’s lands.

Meanwhile Britain rule over Canada in the early 19th century and the industrial revolution broke out in Great Britain, Canada went under a huge economical change too, and this change started to form Canada into a country we live in right now. As industry formed and machines took over people’s job and urbanization begun, which lead to overpopulating the smaller towns and who had the chance started to look for a new place to live. Throughout the mid-19th century, the colonies — Canada West in particular — returned to a pattern of painfully slow economic growth. Officially encouraged immigration from England, Scotland, Ireland, East Europe and even the US gradually filled the better agricultural lands in the colony and populated new commercial

The war had a profound result with the British having rule of North America. The Seven Years War ended with the French signed the Treaty of Paris in 1763. French territory, New France had ceased to exist, the British gained control of the lands that extended from Canada to Florida with the signing of the Treaty of Paris.

The Seven Years War consisted of almost all European countries, including Great Britain and France, as well as the Colonists and the Indians. Also known as the French and Indian War, the war started in 1754 and ended in 1763, with Great Britain being the victor and allowing the nation to gain more control of the colonies in North America. The Seven Years War caused a major turning point in American relations with Great Britain, including Great Britain having now a greater control over North America, while still having colonists who were loyal to the British.

Britain began to be very over populated, which means the british wanted to expand and move into the Ohio Valley area right along the Appalachian Mountains and Mississippi River. In order for the French to keep Canada connected with the lower part of the Mississippi as well as the Caribbean the French needed to keep that land. Nobody looked at whose land this really was,

The English people also started discovering Canada for its hide and fish exchange and in 1670 built up the Hudson 's Bay Company. In 1713 a contention created between the English and French and the English people

The culture, language, and opinions of the French population were widely disregarded by the English speakers of Canada. This discrimination stemmed from the rivalry between the mother countries France and England that transferred over to the colonies of Canada. Anything the one had, the other wanted, so be it that the French and English's positions switched, the resulting discrimination would be the same. However, be it with Britain in control, the English tried to use the influence of their power to the best of their ability. The English felt the opposite forced their culture and language on to them, so they thought it fair

The French and Indian War was a conflict in North America in which Great Britain fought France and their Native American allies. It lasted from 1756 until 1763, so it was also known as the Seven Years War. At the peace conference in 1763, the British received Canada from France and Florida from Spain, but permitted France to keep its West Indian sugar islands and gave Louisiana to Spain. The treaty strengthened the American colonies significantly by removing their European rivals to the north and south and opening the Mississippi Valley to westward expansion.

Due to the bitter rivalries of their mother countries, the two sides also had a strong feels of animosity against one another. This animosity was furthered when the French surrendered New France. This cession of French territory to the British occurred after the French and Indian Wars of the mid 18th century; specifically after the treaty of Paris in February 20th of 1763. The essential annexation brought about much anger within the French. This was illustrated during the highlights of the Patriote movement (the rebellions of 1837 and 1838) and the secession of New France to become British. These events, along with prior rivalry with Britain and its colonies brought forth a substantial amount of Francophone nationalism. Though the rebellion was also caused by famine and poverty on some level, it was the strong French nationalism was the spark that brought about Canada’s first “civil war.”

The Seven Year’s War impacted colonial development in Canada as the British gained control of majority of Canada’s land and had dominant power due to their victory against the French colonies. As a result of the war and the Treaty, it ended French political and cultural influence in Canada.

Because there was French population is some parts of the Canada such as Quebec. But the biggest influenced made by UK (the influence of the UK to North America (USA) also affected to Canada indirectly). In 1791, the region of the Canada separated into two parts with the decision of the British Parliament. The one side of the Canada was under the effect of French and the other side of the Canada was under the influence of the UK. But in 1867, British North America Act was adopted by the Parliament in London.
