Who was the first to draw a map of Canada's East Coast?

Jacques Cartier.
John Cabot.
Christopher Columbus.
Leif Erikson.

The correct answer is: John Cabot.

John Cabot was the first to draw a map of Canada's East Coast, making option B the correct answer. Jacques Cartier was a French explorer who did not draw maps as accurately as Cabot did. Christopher Columbus was an Italian navigator who was actually on a different voyage and had no involvement with Canada's East Coast. Leif Erikson was a Norse explorer who actually discovered Canada prior to Columbus and Cabot, but there is no evidence that he drew a map of the East Coast. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect.
