Lots. To start with they got technology they were likely to never develop on their own, (if you accept the idea that such advancements depended on environmental factors).
Iron items made everything easier, from hunting to warfare, metal was very valuable in a land that produced nothing but soft copper.
They also got a bit of a reprieve from the European onslaught.
The HBC had a simple business model for the massive lands they were given. They would set up forts and trading posts on the coasts and have Aboriginals and other traders come to them to trade. This model allowed Aboriginals a significant level of self government as the HBC was only interested in getting furs and other goods from them. The HBC even had policies that required trading forts to carry enough food to see everybody in the area through starvation events all too common with hunter gathers. It was a simple and profitable model.
But it was not long before traders, many of them French, started to attack the HBC monopoly by trading inland using any method that resulted in lots of furs and all too often as a bonus no exchange of anything in trade other than some alcohol or a bullet. The HBC had many rules about trading alcohol, but those operating outside the HBC faced no such limitations or enforcement. Anything went and we know it did. Eventually the Northwest Company was set up and trading practices improved and provided real competition for HBC.
This resulted in HBC having to move inland and between them and other traders they brought the world giving Aboriginals everything the world had to offer both the good and all the bad.
they ate blood from the first nations... and some crops they grew. The first nations tehy killed meant more food. They were cannibals.

Henry Hudson's expeditions were funded by different companies. The first two expeditions of 1607 and 1608 were funded by the English trading company named the Muscovy Company. The third expedition in 1609 was funded by the Dutch East India Company.
On the first second and fourth were England and the third was by Holland
If it was a Hudson's Bay Company fort, there were for sure a doctor, an officer, and a baker. Also a few extra men. If it was a North West Company fort, there would be more men as they went to the first nations and the Hudson's Bay Company wanted the first nations to come to them.
anything
Henry Hudson's reason for exploring is that at first he worked for the Muscovy Company and they selected him to command an expedition to discover a passage by the north pole to China and Japan. Later on, after failing on is second expedition, he was funded by the East India Company and the Virginia Company for his last two expeditions. Hope that I helped you.
