Are the Canadians European?

There were people on before the Europeans trust me OK, it is a proven fact, I know it is shocking but this is true. Some think that Indians lived here as well as in America. To tell you the truth both of these are wrong. There many people that speculate about this, but the main point is that there are several facts we need to keep in mind.

The Aboriginal Canadian Traditions suggest that the indigenous people of Canada have been around since there was a beginning of time, although this is not very likely, and evidence to support this is practically non existent. It was debatable about where they came from until evidence threw up some more questions about their origination. In fact recent studies actually provide evidence that there was human life present over 20,000 years ago. If you want to know where the earliest humans in the world were, this could even be a good place to start.

However this wasn’t to last, these people were separated into tribes and roughly 1000 years ago the Vikings made settlement here. This is when it all started to go very wrong for the aborigines. The vikings were responsible for many deaths, but they did not linger for long. As events passed on it was the European people that actually caused the complete demise of the Canadian peoples. They were subjected to many of the diseases that the Europeans brought over, not on purpose simply because the Canadians could not cope with these infections and diseases. This is what destroyed around 85 – 95 percent of the entire Aborigine population.

Even thought there may have been aborigines around all that length of time ago, the odds that they are actually still around in the current population are very low? Well if they do it would be in extremely small numbers, in fact so low that they may not even know there own heritage. If we really look at the evidence in front of us, all we have is that the Canadians are just the same us those from Spain and France, European.

Canada holidays have become increasingly popular along with Vancouver holidays and Toronto holidays, all of which should be experienced by everyone!
