Some of the Europeans came to New France (Canada) because they wanted to support and promote or possibly change the First Nations into Romon Catholics, these people included the Jesuit priests and the Ursuline nuns. Explorers like Jaques Cartier and Samuel de Champlain came for riches and routes to Asia. Couriers de bois AKA runners of the woods came to New France for Fur Trade. Hope this helped
