Samuel de Champlain: Explorer and ColonizerFirst VoyageChamplain first went to Canada in 1603 to explore the area called New France. He was part of a trading mission. Just like Cartier, he learned about the Great Lakes and hoped that this would be a route to Asia.
By mid-July, Champlain was in Gaspé. He hoped that Acadia was the key to the route to Asia. In September, Champlain was back in France.
