CHI4U Conequences of Conquest

The reduction of Aboriginal land in Canada has had both intended and unintended consequences. Originally, land was granted to tribes in exchange for their work, but over time, the size of these territories has been reduced, undermining the contributions of Aboriginal peoples to Canadian history.

Aboriginal Land Disputes (reductions in the size of territory which was originally granted to tribes in exchange for their work)

Cause future land disputes

Some of these land disputes would become extremley political and violent, even resulting in death

Undermine and under appreciate the efforts of the Aboriginals peoples and their contributions to Canadian history
Limit the scope of power that the Aboriginals have over their reserves
Reduce the size of the land which the aboriginals live on

The Quebec Act, 1774

Unintended Consequences
Lasting psychological impacts on the French Canadians because those who were once their enemies were now their rulers. They had adapted to and viewed the British as symbols of bloodshed and destruction, due to all of the turbulence in Anglo-French relations. The francophone community was untrusting of the British once they were granted Canada, because they had often viewed them as the enemy.
Intended Consequences
Expand the boundaries of Quebec to overtake an Aboriginal reserve in what is now Ontario
Britian's new acquisition of Canada would enable them to extract many natural resources that the expansive nation had to offer, which they could sell at a premium in Europe

Some of these resources were: lumber, fish, pelts and hides

There was going to be recognition regarding Canada's bilingual citizens, and there was going to be limited separation in rights and advantages between French and English speakers
Quebec and French-Canaidan culture was being recognized as its own entity, which finally had provided the Canadians with the recognition which they deserved under the eyes of the British
The Act would enable Canada to have freedom of religion, as the province of Quebec was dominated by Roman-Catholics it was now open to anyone to practice any religion which they desired, as the transition of authority into the British's hands meant that there would be an influx of Protestant families
