v Good morning ladies and gentlemen, my name is Bossy Farag from 7C and today I am going to be talking about the impact of European arrival on First Nations. When Europeans first explored Canada, it was all occupied by First Nations which they called Indians .The arrival of many Europeans missionaries, traders, and colonists had forever changed the lives of First Nations. Their dispossession of the land had resulted in the death of vast number of aboriginal people. Their arrival of also introduced a variety of European diseases to the native population which they lacked immunity to. However, in the first 200 years of existence, they formed strong religious, military and economic bonds leading to the foundations of Canada.
