End of Recruitment
By the end of 1671, Talon suggested that it would not be necessary to sponsor the passage of girls for the next year, and the king accepted his advice. The migration briefly resumed in 1673, when the king sent 60 more girls at the request of Buade de Frontenac, the new governor, but no more girls would be sponsored afterwards. By 1672, the population of New France had risen to 6,700, from 3,200 in 1663. Out of the approximately 835 marriages of immigrants in the colony during this period, 774 involved a fille du roi.
