The "elastic clause" allowed Congress to make laws it needs to carry out its own powers. An example of how Congress uses it today is how Congress needs to make laws that shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution of the forgoing powers, and all the other powers vested by the Constitution in the Government of the department.

Answer:

Native Americans

Explanation:

In 1754, Britain and France went to war over lands in the Ohio River Valley. This was called the French and Indian War. Colonists supported Britain, while the NATIVE AMERICANS allied themselves with the French.

This is evident from the common name given to the war which is "French and Indian War" (sometimes it is called Seven Years war because it officially lasted for seven years between 1756 to 1763)

Also, there is evidence from the fact that during this period, it is only French colonists that have better relations with the Native Americans compared to other European settlers in America.
