What steps did the english government use to establish meaningful control over its north american mainland colonies from 1650 to 1765?

In what became Canada, Great Britain conquered the French who had the colony of Canada before their defeat in the Battle of the Plains of Abraham. In what became the eastern part of the US, Britain promoted the emigration of people from the British Isles to the new 13 colonies and began trade with them and so forged economic ties with them which eventually became very unfair to the American colonies. In Canada, furs were bought from the First Nations people at a low price and sold in Britain and Europe.
