The first people in Canada were the aboriginal peoples. The Iroquois lived in southern Ontario, and the Algonquin lived in northern Ontario.

The Algonquin hunted and fished. They did not farm. They moved around a lot. They had portable houses, called “wigwams,” which they took with them when they moved. They used toboggans and snowshoes.

The Iroquois lived on land that was good for farming. They planted corn, beans and other vegetables. They lived in houses and villages.

In the early 1600s, the lives of these Aboriginals changed when the Europeans started to arrive in North America.
