Comparing Nova Scotia and Canada East.

What were the child labour laws in these places

in Nova Scotia, child labor was very popular since many families needed all the help they could get, even though they did the same jobs as the adults, they got paid way less,
In the 19th century the government of nova Scotia made a penalty of prison to anybody who asked for less hours for work or better pay. Also in nova scotia, child labor was banned in 1873.
in Canada East, children were being forced to start working at the age of 5, they were even told to do the same work as the men.
The slide says nothing about laws being made for banning child labor, i know from my prior knowledge and google that in Canada East all child labor is banned since the 1870s and 1880s.

Big Events that took place in these places

in Canada East on May 30, 1830, The Indian Removal Act was signed signed in to law by president Andrew Jackson. This law led to relocation of the First nations, which was later known as the"Trail of Tears.". These two treaties are very different.
in Nova Scotia, a treaty called 'The Reciprocity Treaty of 1854' was made by the U.S. and the U.K. this treaty was made to established the free trade (no tax) of natural resources between the countries.
Both of these treaties are very different, they are also about completely different things, though one thing i have noticed is that they did not ask for the opinions of the people who wold be directly affected by this. For example, the Indian Remove Act did not ask any First nations if they were okay with this, though i'm sure they would be okay with this.

How were people treated in these places?

Like nova scotia, the black canadiens in canada east were also treated unfairly, they were also call many rude and racist names.
In Canada east, many first nations people were treated terribly, they assimilated them and made them learn English, and only speak that language. Also, they're opinions were never accounted for when treaties were being made.
In nova scotia, many black canadians were treated very badly, they werent treated the same as the white people, and to make it worse, they werent allowed in churches, schools and other necessities.
in the slides presentation, there were no indications that First nations people were treated unfairly, though from my prior knowledge, i know that everywhere in canada first nations people were known as 'savages' and many people never wanted to see these people, let alone talk to them.

Industuries

in Canada East, people ran the timber, canal and railway companies, banks, trading houses and many other businesses based in montreal. They also controlled the matters of education, also many french inhabitants were farmers qood cutters and labourers. As you can see many of the people from canada east did jobs that also were in Nova Scotia like trade of timber
Canada east handled more urban jobs like railway companies, and banks, they also did more farming than Nova Scotia.
in Nova Scotia, industries such as fishing, shipping, shipbuilding, agriculture, natural gas extraction and trade of natural resources such as timber were in the economy, also being a maritimes region, the ship building economy was booming.
Nova scotia was in the maritimes area, so they had manymore jobs with boat building and fishing.

First Nations People who Lived on the Land Before Settlers.

in Canada East, the First Nations people who live on the land first were the Abénakis, Algonquins, Atikamekw, Cris/Cree, Huron-Wendat, Innus/Montagnais, Inuit, Malécites/ Maliseet Mi'kmaq, Mohawks and Naskapis, 11 in total.
Since Canada East is in fact much bigger than Nova Scotia, there is more land to occupy, therefore letting more first nations peoples have land.

In Nova Scotia, the first Nations people who lived on the land first were the Mi'kmaq and the Acadian peoples.
In Nova Scotia, there were only two first nations groups who lived on the land. Nova Scotia is also much smaller than Canada East, therefore letting less First Nations people have land to own.
