- 3:19a
- 3:19formative
- 3:19part
- 3:20of
- 3:20the
- 3:21Maritimes.
- 3:21And
- 3:22so
- 3:23the
- 3:23Acadians
- 3:24were
- 3:24French
- 3:25settlers
- 3:25who
- 3:25arrived
- 3:25in
- 3:26the
- 3:26early
- 3:261600s.
- 3:27They
- 3:28developed
- 3:28communities
- 3:28across,
- 3:29mostly
- 3:29Nova
- 3:30Scotia,
- 3:30New
- 3:30Brunswick,
- 3:31and
- 3:31they
- 3:31were
- 3:32farming
- 3:32the
- 3:32land
- 3:33and
- 3:33creating
- 3:33a
- 3:34culture
- 3:34that
- 3:34blended
- 3:35European
- 3:35and
- 3:35local
- 3:36influences.
- 3:37But
- 3:38their
- 3:38history
- 3:38is
- 3:39marred
- 3:39by
- 3:39tragedy
- 3:40and
- 3:40forced
- 3:40expulsion.
- 3:41So
- 3:41here's
- 3:42the
- 3:42backstory.
- 3:43What
- 3:43happened
- 3:43is
- 3:44Britain
- 3:44had
- 3:44taken
- 3:45control
- 3:45of
- 3:45the
- 3:45region
- 3:46from
- 3:46France
- 3:46in
- 3:471713,
- 3:48but
- 3:48the
- 3:48Acadians
- 3:49didn't
- 3:49want
- 3:50to
- 3:50pick
- 3:50a
- 3:50side.
- 3:51They
- 3:51refused
- 3:52to
- 3:52fight
- 3:53against
- 3:53their
- 3:53French,
- 3:54who
- 3:54they
- 3:54saw
- 3:54as
- 3:54their
- 3:55cultural
- 3:55cousins,
- 3:56or
- 3:56the
- 3:56Mi',
- 3:57Kmaq,
- 3:57their
- 3:57indigenous
- 3:58allies.
- 3:58They
- 3:59just
- 3:59wanted
- 3:59to
- 3:59farm
- 4:00and
- 4:00live
- 4:00in
- 4:00peace.
- 4:01But
- 4:01when
- 4:02the
- 4:02French
- 4:02and
- 4:02the
- 4:02Indian
- 4:03war
- 4:03broke
- 4:03out
- 4:03in
- 4:04the
- 4:041750s,
- 4:05the
- 4:05British
- 4:05got
- 4:06nervous,
- 4:06and
- 4:07they
- 4:07saw
- 4:07the
- 4:07Acadians
- 4:08as
- 4:08a
- 4:08potential
- 4:09threat.
- 4:09What
- 4:10if
- 4:10they
- 4:10helped
- 4:10the
- 4:10French
- 4:11in
- 4:11an
- 4:11invasion?
- 4:12So
- 4:12when
- 4:12many
- 4:13Acadians
- 4:13refused
- 4:14to
- 4:15swear
- 4:15unconditional
- 4:16loyalty
- 4:16to
- 4:16the
- 4:16Crown,
- 4:17the
- 4:17British
- 4:18decided
- 4:18to
- 4:18remove
- 4:19them
- 4:19altogether.
- 4:20So
- 4:20that
- 4:21started
- 4:21in
- 4:211755,
- 4:22and
- 4:23it
- 4:23was
- 4:23pretty
- 4:23awful.
- 4:24Entire
- 4:24villages
- 4:25were
- 4:25burned,
- 4:26families
- 4:26were
- 4:27torn
- 4:27apart,
- 4:27and
- 4:28more
- 4:28than
- 4:2810,000
- 4:29Acadians
- 4:29were
- 4:30deported
- 4:30to
- 4:30places
- 4:31as
- 4:31far
- 4:31away
- 4:31as
- 4:32American
- 4:33colonies.
- 4:33France,
- 4:34England,
- 4:34the
- 4:34Caribbean.
- 4:35And
- 4:35tragically,
- 4:36many
- 4:37didn't
- 4:37survive
- 4:37the
- 4:38journey.
- 4:38And
- 4:39the
- 4:39heartbreak
- 4:39of
- 4:39it
- 4:39all
- 4:39is
- 4:40that
- 4:40the
- 4:40Acadians
- 4:40weren't
- 4:41looking
- 4:41to
- 4:41join
- 4:42anyone's
- 4:42war.
- 4:42They
- 4:43were
- 4:43neutral.
- 4:43The
- 4:43expulsion
- 4:44was
- 4:44really
- 4:44about
- 4:44the
- 4:45British
- 4:45wanting
- 4:45to
- 4:46secure
- 4:46land
- 4:47and
- 4:47bring
- 4:47in
- 4:47settlers
- 4:48that
- 4:48they
- 4:48trusted
- 4:49more.
- 4:49But,
- 4:50you
- 4:50know,
- 4:50fortunately,
- 4:50the
- 4:51story
- 4:51doesn't
- 4:51end
- 4:51there.
- 4:52The
- 4:52survivors,
- 4:53Acadian
- 4:53survivors,
- 4:54eventually
- 4:54came
- 4:54back,
- 4:55and
- 4:55they
- 4:55made
- 4:56sure
- 4:56their
- 4:56voice
- 4:57and
- 4:57their
- 4:57food
- 4:57and
- 4:57their
- 4:58music.
- 4:58Music
- 4:58didn't
- 4:58just
- 4:59survive,
- 4:59but
- 5:00has
- 5:00now
- 5:00become
- 5:00a
- 5:01defining
- 5:01part
