家园 key is lack of commitment

from the French king,

1. The French royal court believed that New France is so cold and so barren that it could not financially justify further large investment.

2. French king cares too much about land gain in the old world.

3. French general Montcalm won so many battles against English armies, but he was always short on man power and had no professionally trained strong-willed soldiers as good as those red coats.

4. French king perceives the New France only as the supplier of salted cod fish and nice fur. After the 7-year War, French king gave up today's Quebec and only kept two very small fishing islands.

check the map and you will see those two French islands.
