It is impossible to deny that slavery existed in New France (Quebec) before and after the transfer of Canada to the English. The slave trade included Panis (Indian) and Negro (African) and remained a slave even if converted to Roman Catholic or even if they fought for France during war.
Some exiled Canadian Acadians who returned to Nova Scotia before this time were once again deported or thrown into prison camps. Permission is given for some of the displaced Acadians to return to Nova Scotia. In subsequent years, about 3,000 Acadians would return, but are not allowed to reclaim their farms as they are all occupied by 12,500 English-speaking squatters. Many settled around Baie Sainte Marie and Cheticamp, as well as Ile Madame on Cape Breton Island. Many are forced to settle on the east coast of New Brunswick, as this is considered the best available land. Many family units had been broken up and were never reunited. About 2,500 Acadians settled in Louisiana this year. Sixteen hundred Acadians exiled to Britain and, living in internment camps, would also join the Louisiana colony. About one quarter of these prisoners of war would die of smallpox during their first year of captivity.
(I)-James Murray (1721-1794) was the first Colonial Governor General of the Province of Quebec from August 10, 1764 to June 28, 1766. He was the Military Governor of the District of Quebec (1760-1764). (I)-James Murry was recalled to Britain because he believed that if the Canadians were to live contentedly in a British colony, they must be allowed to continue their customs and laws, to worship as Roman Catholics, and to speak French.
The newspaper, Chronicle-Telegraph, is started in Quebec, Quebec.
The Acadians were finally allowed to return to Nova Scotia in 1764. However, the fertile lands that once were theirs were now occupied by English settlers. Since the British would not allow the Acadians to form large settlements, they gradually settled along the various remote coastal regions of the province such as Baie Ste-Marie.
