Britain wanted Canada’s land and natural resources. They got what they wanted and took the land and the resources. They signed the treaties even thought they where not fully understood by either of the cultures. The native cultures are suffering now from crime and other bad things. They get their money from the government so some of the natives don’t go out and find a job they just depend on their welfare money. The British and Canadians ruined the native cultures. This was a very disappointing time in Canadian history.
