Commissioned by Francis I., King of France, Cartier command an expedition to explore the Western Continent.
On April 20, 1534 he sailed for twenty days, before arriving at Newfoundland.
Entering the Strait of Belle Isle, touching the coast of Labrador, he took possession of the country in the name of his king. He erected a cross, which hung the arms of France.
Explored the Bay of Chaleurs, landed in Gaspe Bay, held friendly discourse with the natives, and induced a chief to allow two of his sons to go with him to France, promising to return them the next year.
Also planted a cross with the French arms upon it. Sailed northeast across the Gulf of St. Lawrence, entered the branch
of the St. Lawrence River north of Anticosti Island. Unconscious of having discovered a magnificent river, he turned and
sailed for France to avoid the autumn storms, arriving at St. Malo on Sept. 5, 1534.

He gave Canada its name, after he mistook the Mohawk word for village (kana:ta') as the name of the whole land. Canada -- a Mistake!We owe the name of our country to a misunderstanding. When Jacques Cartier heard the Iroquoian word "kanata", which means town or village, he thought it was the name used for the country. The name began appearing on European maps.

Excerpt from his Writings: The next day part of the saide wilde men with nine of their boates came
to the point and entrance of the Creeke, where we with our ships were at road. We being advertised of their comming, went to the point where they were with our boates: but so soone as they saw us, they began to flee, making signes that they came to trafique with us, shewing us such skinnes as they cloth themselves withall, which are of small value. We likewise made signes unto them, that we wished them no evill: and in signe thereof two of our men ventured to go on land to them, and carry them knives with other Iron wares, and a red hat to give unto their Captaine. Which when they saw, they also came on land, and brought some of their skinnes, and so began to deale with us, seeming to be very glad to have our iron ware and other things, stil dancing with many other ceremonies, as with their hands to cast Sea water on their heads. They gave us whatsoever they had, not keeping any thing, so that they were constrained to go back againe naked, and made signes that the next day they would come againe, and bring more skinnes with them.
How that we having sent two of our men on land with wares, there came about 300. wilde men with great gladnesse. Of the qualitie of the countrey, what it bringeth forth, and of the Bay called Baie du Chaleur, or The Bay of heat.
