Approximately 1000 years ago, the Aboriginal people settled into the are where modern day Toronto is situated and they built villages there. Since the early 1600s, the French fur traders had known the passage that we now call the Toronto Passage and in 1720, they built a small post on the Humber River but they failed financially and they abandoned it in 1730. In 1750, the French built another small trading post. Then the French lost the war to the English.That's how humans moved to this location.
