What were the effects of the European settlement?
At first the first nations did not see the large settlement of Europeans as a problem because they were used to sharing the land. However, the Europeans wanted private ownership and this was new to the first Nations and was not like their traditional ways. More forests were cut down and lands were fenced for farming and ranching and there were fewer areas for hunting. As roads and towns were built, the First Nations found that t Europeans were taking over rivers, lakes and ocean fronts that provided an important food source. (p.38)
