Answer:
The imperial goals of the British and French were similar in North America. Both were interested in agricultural and mineral resources and their maximum exploitation for improving their home fronts.
The point of divergence emerges on how each wanted to achieve this resource exploitation and expropriation which are defined by interpersonal relationships. The British did not respect or show kindness to the Native Americans. They denied the natives their rights to land, freedom, health, and equality, but treated them as animals and not as human beings. The British’s exploitation and expropriation of resources were as outsiders or at worst as sole and rightful owners, who kept everything for themselves.
On the other hand, the French exploited resources as co-owners with a sense of shared responsibility and benefits. The French , therefore, so respected the Native Americans that they loved, intermarried, procreated, and commingled with them and the Native Americans responded in kind. This accords with the sayings that “respect is reciprocal" and "love begets love.”
Explanation:
The British mistreatment of the Native Americans can, in part, explain the relationship misunderstandings and the racial conundrums in present-day United States, where "co-outsiders-insiders" are discriminated against as totally strange outsiders with no sense of belonging. Acceptance of the other is the starting point for cordial relationships. Wherever prejudices are allowed to becloud our sense of humanness, there are always destructive instead of productive conflicts.
The goals of the British was to rise to power. They wanted to rise to power like the French and the Spaniards.
The goals of the French was to make money through the trade of fur and also spread their catholic faith in the Region.
The motives of the British made them to resent the natives and attempt to take what was rightfully theirs. The British wanted power, in order to get this, they did not mind treating the original landowners poorly.
The French on the other hand were mostly interested in trade. They became allies with the natives and treated them with mutual respect. In return, the Natives treated them as trusted friends.
