- The Expulsion of the Acadians
- Alright thank you very much!
- Wow!
- What? Really?
- Do you know that the British saved me from the French in the Seven Year's War, THEY SAVED MY LIFE!
- Nooooo! Please!
- Don't you dare!
- You shall all leave Acadia at once!
- In the Treaty of Utrecht of 1713, France gave Acadia to Britain forever!
- It's ours now!!!
- The British sent Paul Mascerene, a British soldier born as a French protestant. His role was to live in Acadia as an Acadian citizen and persuade the Acadians to bring them on the British side.
- My family is lost and my kid has small pox!
- I have been starving for days, I don't think I can make it till we make it.
- MOMMY!!!!
- Paul Mascerene was unsuccessful so John Winslow, an officer, delivered a deportation letter for the Acadians to be deported from Acadia because their property was owned by the British Crown.
- Hi!
- Help please, we are hungry!
- Where did you people come from?
- Eww stay away!
- The Acadians were herded into big waiting ships to take them to the 13 colonies or to France! Some Acadians even escaped to New France! Many people had been separated from their family! The British had started to burn the Acadian's homes right in front of them!
- No my house, please don't do that!
- Many people had died on the ships. They were infected by diseases like small pox, scurvy and measels. Some even died from starvation and at least one ship sank!
- When the Acadians got to the 13 colonies, there was no one to welcome them, the British didn't tell anyone that the Acadian refugees were arriving there! Some people lived in the English territories, but some managed to seek refuge in Lousiana with French people of their kind!
