Which of the following people was believed to have reached Canada
Nataly_w [17]

"John Cabot" was believed to have reached Canada.

<u>Answer:</u> Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

One of the very first European adventurers to move to Canada named John Cabot. He was a location-maker and commander of the sea. He sailed off England in 1497 to establish a new route to Asia. Fortunately east coast of Canada was explored by him.

Underneath the British crown, Cabot's findings significantly assisted Britain to get its initial colonies into the New World. Cabot's expansionism and adventures cruised a path for potential travelers to develop maps and find out the real significance of the achievements he and Columbus established.
