History

• The history of Canada covers the period from the
  arrival of Paleo-Indians thousands of years ago

  Canada were inhabited for millennia by Aboriginal
  peoples, with distinct trade networks, spiritual
  beliefs, and styles of social organization. Some
  of these civilizations had long faded by the time
  of the first European arrivals and have been
  discovered through archaeological investigations.
