Question

why did Jacques Cartier make two voyages to Canada. A to fight the British over land claims. B to search for the northwest passage. C to investigate early Viking settlements. D to establish trade with native Americans.

Answer 1

I believe it's B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacques Cartier was sent to find the Northwest passage and to look for gold. on his second voyage Cartier traveled up to the St. Lawrence river. He went as far as he could until he reached a barrier of river rapids. Hope that helped!
