Various indigenous peoples, collectively known as the Native Americans. These people were not a single homogeneous nation, but were divided into many tribes and people groups, such as the Iroquois, Algonquins, Apaches, and Blackfeet.
Over 500 tribes of Native Americans, whose ancestors migrated over a "land bridge" from Asia after the last Ice Age, during prehistory.
Native Americans, the majority of which died of diseases (e.g. smallpox, measles, mumps) within a few years of the arrival of the first European explorers. Thus when the colonists arrived the land was almost empty of people.

How long did aboriginal people reside in Canada before europeans came?
Depends on which group. Immigration from Asia started about 15,000 years ago and has been ongoing since then. Some Aboriginal people, the Inuit for example would have arrived as recently as 1,000 years ago, displacing previous cultures. This would have occurred through out Canada just as it had every else. Canada is just one step in our migration out of Africa to South America. When thinking of Canada keep in mind that no one lived in most of Canada 10,000 years ago as most of it was under Ice. Only after the ice sheet retreated could people live in most of what is today Canada, and the land would take hundreds, in some areas, thousands of years before it would become habitable. Europeans arrived in Canada about 1,000 years ago. Unless of course they arrived before the Clovis people.

Mainly just Native Americans/Indians lived here, but before the pilgrims there was also a small settlement of Filipinos that settled down in Louisiana around the early 1500's. Where as the pilgrims arrived here around the 1600's. There were also some Norse/Vikings that arrived here in the 1000's, around 400 years before Columbus. They arrived around the north east of America or somewhere around Canada. Although they did arrive here before the pilgrims, they did not technically settle here since they went back to Europe. Although some, mainly scholars, say that some settled around Canada, It has not yet been fully proven. So technically they did not settle here. Also, Columbus arrived in North America around the 1400's but mainly had established a settlement around the Caribbeans, and he did not stay here in North America, but instead went back to Europe. Although, the area where Columbus had established a settlement was acknowledged as a small colony of Spain.
