Who where the first europens to come to canada?
The Vikings were the first proven Europeans to come to Canada and North America over 1000 years ago. It is possible, even likely, that the Irish where here before that but the proof is weak. It is also possible that the Pre-Clovis people, the culture in North America before the ancestors of today's aboriginals arrived via the Bering Land Bridge, were Europeans. The evidence is weak but mounting. If that is the case the first Europeans would be Paleolithic peoples from the Solutrean culture. They would have been from an area that is today modern France and traveled along the edge of the ice sheet that extended down into what is today part of the United States of America. That would have been about 20,000 years ago.
