At the confluence of Petite Riviere and St. Dauversiere hired Paul Chomedey de Maisonneuve , then age 30, to lead a group of colonists to build a mission on his new seigneury. The colonists left France in for Quebec and arrived on the island the following year. On May 17, , Ville-Marie was founded on the southern shore of Montreal island, with Maisonneuve as its first governor. The settlement included a chapel and a hospital, under the command of Jeanne Mance.
In the spring of , the Iroquois attacks became so frequent and so violent that Ville-Marie thought its end had come. Maisonneuve made all the settlers take refuge in the fort. By , the colony at Montreal had been so reduced that he was forced to return to France to raise volunteers to go with him to the colony the following year.
If the effort had failed, Montreal was to be abandoned and the survivors re-located downriver to Quebec City. Before these arrived in the fall of , the population of Montreal was barely 50 people. By , Ville-Marie was home to some colonists, most of them living in modest wooden houses. Ville-Marie became a centre for the fur trade and a base for further exploration. To encourage French settlement, it wanted the Mohawk to move away from the fur trading post at Ville-Marie.
It had a mission village, known as Kahnewake , south of the St Lawrence River. The fathers persuaded some Mohawk to make a new settlement at their former hunting grounds north of the Ottawa River. This became Kanesatake. All three are now Mohawk reserves in Canada.

Arnold eventually withdrew his forces back to the New York fort of Ticonderoga by the summer. On June 15, Arnold's messenger approaching Sorel spotted Carleton returning with a fleet of ships and notified him. Arnold's forces abandoned Montreal attempting to burn it down in the process prior to the June 17 arrival of Carleton's fleet. The Americans did not return British prisoners in exchange, as previously agreed, due to accusations of abuse, with Congress repudiating the agreement at the protest of George Washington.
Arnold blamed Colonel Timothy Bedel for the defeat, removing him and Lieutenant Butterfield from command and sending them to Sorel for court-martial. The retreat of the American army delayed their court martial until August 1, , when they were convicted and cashiered at Ticonderoga.
