What did you learn so far about explorers and the colonization of Canada?

I have learned so many things about explorers and colonization. There were two explorers of Canada named John Cabot and Jacques Cartier. They both did great deeds for their countries. Cabot found a new land named Newfoundland and took a lot of fish there. Cartier found some native people. Because of explorations, Europe became more and more advanced. Then, they became strong and made their first step to become colonizers.
