1713 - The British gain control of much of Eastern Canada under the Treaty of Utrecht.

In 1713, the Treaty of Utrecht was signed between Britain, France, and Spain, granting Britain control of much of what is now Eastern Canada.

The French were given the right to fish in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, while the British were given the rights to the Hudson Bay and the St. Lawrence River.

With the treaty, the British gained control of the provinces of Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, and Prince Edward Island.

The British also gained control of the fur trade, which was highly profitable for the Crown.

In addition, the British gained the right to settle in the area and establish settlements.

The French were allowed to keep their culture and language in the area, but were not allowed to hold any political power.

This treaty effectively ended the French presence in Eastern Canada.
