7 Early New France A. Early New France: The economy of New France was based on the theory of mercantilism: It was an economic theory where a country s power was determined by the amount of gold it had. Lots of gold = buy bigger army = control the world Designed to enrich and help the mother country and not the colonies.

8 Early New France Steps in Mercantilism: 1. Accumulate resources in the colonies 2. Ship those resources to the mother country 3. Sell resources to other countries 4. Obtain gold in return. Role of the colonies in mercantilism: Send resources to the mother country Any decision in the colony always had to benefit or enrich the mother country

Trois-Rivières (1634) 3. Montreal / Ville-Marie (1642) Reasons why those sites were chosen: Situated close to the river for trade, transport and defense Close to the Native people (for the fur trade).

22 Chp. 2 The French Regime Relations with the Aboriginals Relations with the Aboriginals An alliance with the Native people was crucial if the French wanted to build a successful colony. The Natives helped the French in many ways: Basic survival (food, shelter) Military purposes (defense) Economic reasons (fur trade) Evangelization and spreading Catholicism

23 Chp. 2 The French Regime Relations with the Aboriginals Jacques Cartier and the Algonquin vs. the Iroquois - European presence would intensify Aboriginal conflict and rivalries

27 Chp. 2 The French Regime Demographic differences

28 New France before 1663 B. New France before 1663: The King left the development and settlement of New France to merchants and various Fur Trading Companies. Under their control, demographic growth in New France was very slow: Reasons: It was hard to convince people to leave France Wars in Europe and priorities of the Mother Country Harsh climate in N.-F. Fur trading companies focused more on making money than populating N.-F.

29 Early New France The Company of One Hundred Associates, run by Cardinal Richelieu, was created in 1627 by the King of France to fix the problems in the colony. They were given a monopoly over the fur trade, and told to: 1. Increase the population 2. Evangelize the Aboriginals Engagés (temporary workers) were hired as craftspeople and farmers to develop the colony.

30 Resources to be exploited The Beaver (Castor Canadensis) Fur trading with the First Nations

31 The Fur Trade in New France

32 Early New France The colony quickly ran into trouble under the control of the Company of 100 Associates: They did not populate New France because they focused more on making money. Most of the Engagés they hired went back to France after 3 years. In 1629 the invading English Kirke brothers captured the city of Quebec, including many fur pelts.

33 Chp. 2 The French Regime Relations with the Aboriginals Q. How could this be a concern to New France? Q. What could France do to increase the population in New France?

34 Early New France After signing the Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye with the English 1632, New France returns to French control. To regain control over New France, the first Governor General (Charles Montmagny) is appointed by the king in He shares control of the colony with the Company of 100 Associates.
