Answer:
To understand why French Canadians have struggled to settle in the west, historians have focused primarily on cultural differences. New research reveals that English and French speakers have somewhat different personal characteristics. Large-scale migration into New England balanced the demographic and human capital profile of French Canadians. Although if by the 1880s the U.S. had introduced immigration controls, many French Canadians would not possibly have been redirected westward, writers claim. There was little chance of later chain migration of French Canadians to the West, they add, without much of the base built by the beginning of the twentieth century. The only mainly French-speaking province in 1867 was Quebec, although it was one out of four provinces. Just about 5% of western Canada's white population spoke French as their mother tongue in 1901. Political structures in the new provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan were most unlikely to be built with Francophones in mind without a significant minority of Francophone voters in the early 1900s. Chain migration is sometimes provided as a dominant explanation, but every chain has a beginning, for the locational concentrations of migrants of one ethnicity or regional history.
Europe and the united states
Answer:
New Netherland was a region that included parts of New York, Delaware, New Jersey and Connecticut. Dutch control of the New Netherland lasted only about 50 years.
They were ruled by a patroon system created by The West India Company in order to establish a prosperous trading empire. The patroon system consisted in granting huge parcels of land and feudal rights to individuals who could finance the settlement of 50 adults, this was only granted to those with connections to The West India Company and resulted in exclusive political power in the hands of a few.
The Dutch emphasized in trading posts and did not encourage the large-scale movement of their population (which undermined support for Dutch rule) only small traders were willing to seek out their fortunes along the North American shore. They gave North America less attention compared to it's other colonies and were more focused on trading than on politics.
In 1642 and the following years, English settlers arrived to western Long Island. They were well received by the Director of New Netherland (Willem Kieft). Willem Kieft gave them lands and authorized the establishment of town governments. (Mespath, Hempstead, Vlissingen and Gravesend). They were granted liberty of creating their own politics and they established them soon as their territories were granted but the next director Stuyvesant opposed to it.
While English setters were expanding he Dutch and English were battling for supremacy in shipping and trade, and fought three naval wars (1652 - 1674), Charles II promised New Netherland to his brother James, Duke of York. James sent Colonel Richard Nicolls to seize the colony. Their army arrived to Long Island in August and moved to Brooklyn enlisting support from the English towns and offered fair treatment for those who surrender.
Peter Stuyvesant was forced to surrender the colony under generous circumstances.
Conclusion:
Dutch policies focused more on trading and since their patroons were free to rule their land, when the English came and convinced them to join them granting them trade benefits and wealth the Dutch empire was left with no option than to surrender.
