 Boston.com / News / World / Canada / Canada acknowledges wrong done to Acadians deported in 1700s
OTTAWA -- Canada formally acknowledged yesterday that a great wrong had been done to 11,000 French-speaking Acadians deported from Atlantic Canada between 1755 and 1763.
But the government said a royal proclamation did not amount to an apology for Britain's deportation of the Acadians, who were the original French-speaking settlers in eastern Canada, and did not point to any compensation being paid for the wrongs committed some 250 years ago.
The Acadians arrived in what is now eastern Canada in the early 1600s, but fell victim to a long struggle between Britain and France for what became Canada.
