A. In i805, a French colony was established in Nova Scotia. and was the first act settlement by-Euro- pesns within e boundaries oi the Dominion of Canada. In i621 Nova Bcotia was annexed to Scotland and named Nova Bcotia by James I. and in 1826 the Scottish Order oi Baron- ets was founded. Nova Bcotla was ceded to Frhnce by Charles I; where- upon Richelieu iormed a coloniza- .tion compllly (with the direction to exclude Protestants). It was con- quered by Oromwell. Again ceded to France, it remained really, or nom- inally, under France till crsded to Great Britain by the ‘Treaty of Utrecht. in 1718. The first '--I-I-. tlve step ‘towards a federal tmlon oi the Britishlgorth American prov- inces was made by the Legisldturg q: Nova Bcotia by the unanimous you of the Assembly in 180i. ‘ '
