Who was the first to draw a map of Canada's East Coast, and when?

Jacques Cartier in 1534

John Cabot in 1497

John Cabot was the first to draw a map of Canada's East Coast in 1497.

Jacques Cartier explored the Gulf of St. Lawrence in 1534, but his map did not include the entire East Coast.

Henry Hudson explored the Hudson Bay in 1611, which is not part of the East Coast.

Samuel de Champlain founded a French colony in Quebec in 1604, but his map also did not cover the entire East Coast.

Therefore, B is the only correct answer as Cabot's map is considered the first accurate map of the East Coast of Canada.
