The Seven Years' War was a conflict between France and Great Britain that took place between 1756 and 1763, and faced both European powers and their allies in various territories, including North America.
In North America, both nations had colonies of considerable importance: France had the colony of New France in what is now Quebec, Canada; while Great Britain had its Thirteen Colonies on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. The two nations were vying for control of the Great Lakes. Thus, when the war broke out, the colonies of both countries faced each other over the disputed territories, ending with the British victory and the cession by France of all the territories of it on the continent.
Even so, the population of Quebec continued to maintain its customs (its Latin culture, its Catholic religion against British Anglicanism and, fundamentally, its French language). This situation was maintained over the years, and today it is possible to observe in Canada a bilingualism at the national level, with the French language being predominant in the province of Quebec, and the English language in the rest of the country.
