Actually, I suspect he didn’t really say that, because in ancient France the people spoke an obscure language known as French. I have searched websites with names such as “famous quotation of Voltaire“ but none mentions that primitive country known as Canada. How does Wikipedia treat foreign quotations?

Change last line in first paragraph from "The outnumbered French particularly depended on the natives." to "The outnumbered French particularly depended on native allies." Or similar, "the natives" is not a preferred form of reference.

No, Maybe if it was fought In more modern times, but when it was fought it was known as the French and Indian war and has been known as that for centuries. If the name was changed Wikipedia would probably be the only one referring to the war as that, as I have never seen any website or person refer to the war as the "French and Native American War".
