after the creation of the french settlements in Quebec and along the st Lawrence  river, the merchants and slaves came into this new world to help spread the colonies further inland. due to the immigration policies put in place by jean talon the immigration into the new world was high and was the key to sustaining the settlement  however with the many immigrants from Europe came serious and contagious diseases that were spread throughout most ships  ,like scurvy. this is what brought the need to quarantine the sick and founded the settlement of Grosse ile which was a small town where the sick were sent , basically to die. the amount of immigrants provided a greater religious diversity but after the new colony split between upper and lower Canada, one being of loyalists who were insistent that french be the main language and the other being British  who were content to let them choose and live how they pleased in their part of the country. the native population however suffered the most  very many tribes were wiped out due to the sicknesses brought about by Europeans decimating the native population, friend or foe.
