Scouting the Settlers
 

The French Settlement of Nouvelle France on the St. Lawrence River.

Beaver hatThe Micmac tells you, "The French must have furs! All over Europe, white men are wearing beaver hats! They pay high prices and they know the best beaver pelts come from our lands."

He also says this: "As for our traditions—times have changed! Working with the French, we're rich now. And you should try their brandy!"Attribution

You try the brandy.

You have seen enough. Make your report.
