B is the correct answer.

Giovanni Cabot, better known as John Cabot, was a 15th-century Italian explorer who sailed under a commission from Henry VII of England.

Cabot made landfall throughout the Maritimes and claimed North America for the English Crown. He was the first European to reach North America since the Vikings.
