Fur Trade.

In this picture,I see two elk heads and two beaver skins.
These were going to be the goods of fur trade. I also get the information that these are presented to Queen Elizabeth II as rent. These things looks so expensive. At that time ,ordinary people might not afford it.

It's the map of the areas where fur trade in. I can see the main map of Canada. That shows that fur trade is very important for Canadian History. It might be a 17th century's map of fur trade. Canada might be the centre of fur trade.

We can see a lovely animal. It's a kind of Muridae in Canada. But it's very different from a rat,it could live in water. And even can swim faster than fish.It's also a bit lovely,but it would be killed for fur trade. That's what I don't want.

We can notice that there are two group of people. The group beside the river might be the vendees. Another group are the original inhabitants. The vendors had a lot of goods. They were going to sale vend their fur. It might be the outset of fur trade.

We can see some words in this picture"Fur Traders going down the River Sask . Prince Albert Sask. 1905 ". Almost all the ways of fur trade for the fur traders are by ship. The ship were not big enough, but these group of ship together could be bigger enough. They bought the goods from here and then take to other places which are far away from here to sell.
