- Phase 2 (1603-1670) Expansion with the establishment of New France
- Trading partners like Ouendat are important to New France.
- The fur trade led to economic competition between different European groups such as the British and French as well as the First Nations. Communities and their involvement with the environment and each other changed through each of the five phases of the fur trade.
- Phase 3 (1670-1760) Rivalries between the British and French
- Thanks to the Anishinabe for being a middle man for the Hudson Bay Company in the fur trade.
- Europeans arriving to fish cod on the east coast of Canada started to trade with First Nation groups such as the Mi’kmaq. The early fur trade is believed to have benefited both Europeans and First Nations groups.
- Phase 4 (1760-1821) Expanding the fur trade out west
