Jacques Cartier's final days were marked by a decline in health and a retreat from exploration. After his last voyage to Canada in 1541, he returned to France, where he faced criticism and was largely sidelined from further expeditions. Cartier spent his remaining years in Saint-Malo, where he passed away in 1557. His contributions to exploration and mapping of Canada, however, left a lasting legacy.
