Pierre Du Gua de Monts


                            

       Pierre Du Gua De Monts is a early explorer and fur trader who established Port Royal in Acadia known as Canada. In 1603, De Monts was given the power sized illegal traders. He became the governor of Acadia whose duties were to control the area.


       Colonists like Jean the Poutrincourt, Samuel de Camplain and others planted and harvested crops and built a mill and ground flour which was traded with French.

     The business was not successful that made de Monts to leave Port Royal in 1607. He then build Quebec in 1608. The country can stand alone with the help of agriculture.

  2. Great job! I think that you really explained what Pierre Du Gua de Monts did in North America during the years of 1603 to 1608. I also enjoyed the fact that you put it in three paragraphs rather than cramming it in one paragraph.
