Answer 2

The correct answer is D) The French colonists began farming at about the same time the fur trade began.

The statement that is true of French colonization in North America is "The French colonists began farming at about the same time the fur trade began."

Let's have in mind that the French had a different view of the land than the English colonizers did. The French were more interested in the fur trade than in establishing colonies. That is why the French developed better relationships with the Native American Indians tribes. The English were very interested in acquiring more and more land to exploit raw materials and make a profit.
