It is Jacques Cartier, not Samuel of Champlain, in 1535.[edit]

The article is in error about the explorer name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.203.15.57 (talk) 19:37, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple Problems (Dates and Facts)[edit]

First, Jacques Cartier reached the village of Stadacona in his second relation (1535-1536) and not in 1534. More precisely, Jacques Cartier was brought by Donnacona to his village on September 7, 1535.

Second, the article reads: "At the time, the village chief was Donnacona, who showed Cartier five scalps taken in their war with the Toudaman (likely the Miꞌkmaq), a neighbouring people who had attacked one of their forts the previous spring, killing 200 inhabitants." This particular event refers to Ile du Massacre and is not relevant to this page. In addition, the description of the event is misleading. It is the Iroquois who are reported to have killed the 200 people (the Toudamans) and not the opposite.

Third, the article reads: "Despite efforts by the people of the village, Cartier seized some inhabitants and their chief,[2] but later released Donnacona, who agreed for his two sons, Taignoagny and Domagaya,[3] to return with Cartier to France for a year." This event occurred during the very first relation of Jacques Cartier in 1534. When Jacques Cartier left Stadaconé in 1536, he succeeded in holding Donnacona to bringing back with him to France.

Finally, the article reads: "Five years later, Cartier came back to Stadacona in 1543 [...]." This is impossible as Cartier third and last relation took place from 1541 to 1542.
