This difference has always existed, however, even when the region was young, and thus does not imply a growing or changing trend, but rather the result of historical population patterns.
New England is perhaps the most well-defined region of the United States, with more uniformity and more shared heritage than other regions of the country.

 James Bay Cree and Quebec Hydro Development
Fur traders have been present in the region since the mid-seventeenth century, and missionaries have visited most trading posts since the mid-nineteenth century; but the arrival of the government characterizes the twentieth century.

Although these lands were purchased by Canada from the Hudson's Bay Company in 1870, the government presence was slow to be felt.
