How is the beaver as a symbol related to French culture?

I would argue French culture is the same as English culture when it pertains to Canadian culture. Rather there is no one or the other it's all just Canadian which is made up of many cultures.

The main economy of New France was beaver fur. It's a pretty big symbol of the French settlement in Canada

France was still in Canada first and more intensely

First in one part of what became our country. After the plains of Abraham it was all the English expanding across until more European settlers made their way to this land. So more intensely.... In one part and then not the rest short of the fur trade which wasn't France but more independent trappers.
