France was interested in driving the Spanish from Canada.

Explanation:

As you can recall, there were no Spanish in Canada by the time the French arrived so that wasn´t one of their focus, but they were heavily interested in the fur trading and in starting French Colonies, that why they did it in Canada and other parts of the continent, they also wanted a route to the orient to be able to get more asiatic spices and products.
