Columbus Paper
Christopher Columbus made the best of an accident when the Santa Maria, his ship, crashed into the Americas. He brought many new tales and resources back to Europe that would forever change the course of history.

Without Columbus's attempt at colonizing the new world, it is impossible to determine what present day Canada would look like. If England and France hadn't been motivated to colonize, we would probably not have had the battles that had determined the borders and culture of today such as the “War of 1812”. So, Columbus brought on a wave of exploration as a result of his first expedition and attempt to colonize, that has changed the outcome of our newer countries
