*Warning note:* This episode contains outdated terms. Due to the recognized educational value of this resource, the TFO Digital Learning educational team has decided to continue to present it to IDELLO users. In the spring of 1608, after facing a difficult winter, Champlain engaged in a military campaign against the Iroquois, enemies of his own native allies. At the end of 1610, upon his return to France, Champlain received terrible news. His most powerful supporter, King Henry IV, had been assassinated. He must now work behind the scenes to advance his project. Champlain managed to leave for New France in March 1611. He travelled the Ottawa River where he met Tessouat, a chief whose reputation rivalled his own in the St. Lawrence Valley.
