The basic way of life in Canada was established by which settlers?

  1. English

  2. Welsh

  3. Scottish

  4. All of the above

The correct answer is: All of the above

The basic way of life in Canada was established by settlers from England, Wales, and Scotland. Therefore, the most accurate option is D, which includes all three groups as opposed to only one or two. While it may be true that the majority of settlers in Canada were English, Welsh, or Scottish, the question specifically asks which settlers established the basic way of life, which would include influences and contributions from all three groups. Additionally, A, B, and C are individual options and do not provide a comprehensive answer. Therefore, D is the most appropriate answer for this question.
