1701, The Great Peace of Montreal - Part 3 of 3

1701, The Great Peace of Montréal web site (grandepaix.pacmusee.qc.ca/eng/...) invites you to explore a vast region -- northeastern North America -- at a time when a unique event was about to take place: a peace treaty was going to be signed between France and over thirty separate First Nations. This was a tremendous feat of diplomacy!
Native delegations gathered in the small town of Montréal in August 1701 to ratify a treaty that had required intense negotiations, particularly over the past year. It had been a very delicate task, and even now, with all the ambassadors gathered in Montréal, the outcome was not yet certain.
Pointe-à-Callière, the Montréal Museum of Archaeology and History, has mounted this virtual exhibition as a way of sharing this fascinating, little-known story that unfolded not far from the Museum's modern-day site. One of the central figures in the story is Louis-Hector de Callière, Governor of Montréal and later of New France.

But in the end they could not stop the English expansion, and New France and the treaty was gone.

Yeah I guess they couldn't stop the english from selling alcohol and guns to natives and intensifying the killings between them, what a shame.
