Samuel de Champlain's First Voyage - 1603 The Path to Settlement At the turn of the century, exploration had taken second place to fur trading with the Native People of the New World. France was financially strapped and even the new king, Henri IV, lived little better than a pauper. Protestant by birth, Henri had converted to Catholicism to help him rule the Catholic-dominated country. France was poor, but the Catholic Church was very rich. King Henri then filled his government with Huguenots (French Protestants) and rewrote the tax laws and set up agricultural programs that helped France get back on track. However, he was convinced that trade income from New France was the answer to the country's financial problems. Following the lead of the Dutch and Spanish, King Henri decided to create a company to oversee the colonization and fur trade of New France rather than to depend on private funding. To that end, he founded The Canada and Acadia Company in 1603 and granted to it a fur trade monopoly over all the land from present-day Philidelphia to Cape Breton Island. Aymar de Clermont de Chaste was appointed Vice-Admiral of France who sent Samuel de Champlain, probably on commission from King Henri IV, on his first voyage to Canada. Champlain's instructions were to retrace Cartier's route from over a half-century earlier and to begin setting up trade relations with the Iroquoians and with any other Indian Nations he encountered.

W ORLD E D ISCOVERY OF THE L AST F RONTIER A NCIENT TIMES - TH C ENTURY ravelers of the ancient world explored distant regions not only out of necessity for such things as food and shelter but also out of sheer curiosity. A wide range of water craft designs were used by ancient travelers, enabling peoples from different lands to meet and communicate. With the growth of populations in areas defined today as countries, and the formation of systems to govern these populations, it became necessary to acquire more land and resources in order to gain power and compete in the world market. Trade soon became the key motivating factor for exploration while the advancement of shipbuilding techniques allowed for exploration at farther distances and for longer duration. Haida canoe Arab dhow By the 8th century, Arab language, knowledge and the religion of Islam had spread across vast distances. Muslim scholars (those who followed Islam) sought out scientific knowledge when exploring other lands. These scholars were first to calculate that the earth was round. Excelling in navigation, they are credited with the invention of the astrolabe . The best known Muslim traveler is Ibn Battuta who wrote about his adventurous 14th century journeys by sea and land in a book titled "Travels". The Vikings, namely Norse explorers Bjarni Herjulfsson, Eric the Red, and son Leif Erikson, discovered Iceland, Greenland, and the coastline as far south as the northeastern American states in the late tenth century. It would be several centuries before other European peoples explored the Americas.

Samuel de Champlain c. 1570 - 1635 Biography Born into a seafaring family on the Atlantic coast of France, Champlain crossed the Atlantic over twenty times. His voyages took him up the St. Lawrence River to the future site of Montreal; to Quebec City, which he founded in 1608; to the coasts of what would become New England and Canada's Maritime provinces; and inland to Georgian Bay. These extensive coastal and interior explorations enabled France to make solid claims to much of North America at a time when the English were just beginning to settle Virginia. Champlain also cultivated strong friendships with many Native Americans, including the Montagnais, the Algonkians, and the Hurons, with whom he joined forces to fight their enemy, the Iroquois. He recorded his explorations in such works as Des Sauvages Les Voyages Voyages et Descouvertures (1619), and Les Voyages de la Nouvelle France (1632), his final and largest publication. Explorations If Champlain is remembered as a forefather of the French settlement of what is now Quebec, he is also remembered as one of the most careful and voluminous writers about the exploration of the New World. Compared to Harriot's Brief and True Report , Champlain's Voyages (1613) is loaded with detail and seems much more modern, scientific, and professional. The interactions which he describes with native peoples are complex, and he is careful to distinguish among the various groups whom he and his men encounter.

In 1534 Cartier located the entrance to the St. Lawrence River, the key to any North American continental highway. Like Cabot, he hoped to find warm winds and spice trees, signs that his fortune was near. Though he sailed up the magnificent waterway to establish a settlement at the future site of the City of Quebec, and on to the Indian village of Hochelaga, which was to become Montreal, and took the entire territory in the name of the King of France, he returned home without a hint that this was the way to the markets of China. But the idea would not remain forgotten, nor the challenge. Almost a century later, another Frenchman, Samuel de Champlain, also sailed up the St. Lawrence to Montreal. The year 1614 marks the conscious beginning of the first North American commercial continental highway. In the spring of that year, Champlain set out with two other Europeans and a small group of Indians to follow the Ottawa River rather than continue up the St. Lawrence River. His Indian guides had assured him that there was a very large body of water ahead. Having no guide beyond his own hopes and dreams, the explorer assumed that he was near salt water— and on his way to China! It was a long, arduous journey, lasting several weeks, much of the time spent portaging the many rapids, an experience entirely new to the Frenchman. But always, no matter how exhausted, he thought about that salt water. When at last his Indian guides led him to the mouth of the French River and a bay so vast that he could not see the horizon, he thanked God for the blessing before falling to his knees and scooping up a handful of water. His realization was one of the most disappointing in an era of countless failures. This was fresh water— it was not the ocean!
