In 1763, the Treaty of Paris surrendered New France to Britain.

The British victory on the Plains of Abraham in September 1759 placed the city of Quebec under British rule

September 1760, the British guaranteed the people of New France the following: immunity from deportation or maltreatment; the right to depart for France with all their possessions; continued enjoyment of property rights; the right to carry on the fur trade on an equal basis with the British; and freedom of religion.


10 February 1763, the colony of New France became a British possession

BP Deepwater horizon accident


The 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill in Prince William Sound, Alaska, resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of seabirds and thousands of marine mammals. While precise total numbers are impossible to determine, scientific estimates of the immediate wildlife toll include:
  • Seabirds: An estimated 250,000 (with ranges from 100,000 to over 500,000).
  • Sea Otters: Approximately 2,800 to 3,500.
  • Harbor Seals: Around 300.
  • Bald Eagles: Approximately 250.
  • Killer Whales (Orcas): Up to 22 (from the AB pod).
  • Fish and Others: Billions of salmon and herring eggs, along with countless invertebrates.
