He continued to trade in the La Baye area. He was arrested by the British after the American Revolutionary War for selling supplies to the Americans. Ducharme became a partner in a general store set up at Michilimackinac in 1779. During 1779–80, he helped lead a British expedition against the Spanish at St. Louis, in the Anglo-Spanish War. After he retired from the fur trade, Ducharme represented in the Legislative Assembly of Lower Canada from 1796 to 1800. He died at Lachine in 1807. His son Dominique also entered the fur trade and later served with distinction during the War of 1812. (en)
