What Role Did the Aboriginals Play in the Fur Trade

The Aboriginal People were very important in the fur trade since they were the people that traded fur to others for things that they would need such as resources and food. Many people in different areas around Canada did not have the same things that other places had such as fur. They were the ones that had all the fur and needed to get rid of it so they can make profit such as resources or something valuable. The Aboriginal people had one problem though, they needed major help from the European's such as their technology and support. The European's had to stick with them and was forced to adapt to the Aboriginal culture and had to bargain with them. The Aboriginals had a big trading company, which the European's needed to and since the Europeans had to help them they should just be forced to learn there culture and ways. They had to be at a good area that they could trade with people easy and since they had most of the furs, which lots of people needed they made a big profit overtime with the Europeans help with their technologies and plans.
