Way back when, you could find them all over Canada, but mainly in the Plains. The most famous settlement was the Red River settlement, which is by today's Red River, Manitoba. They were also found in the U.S.A., but mainly Canada. In Modern Canada, you can find someone almost everywhere, there are 200,000 Metis people alive today, in fact, I am one of them, as well as one of my math classmates.
Louis Riel didnt fight metis people, he was a metis, he was fighting FOR the metis

Metis people were very cautious about what furs they would wear
Louis Riel fought for the Metis rights
Metis makes up 4.4% of the population of 1,034,974. That would be around 45,550 people who are Metis.
today there are around 200,000 Metis People in Canada.
They are still alive. I'm Metis.
The Metis were people who lived along the Red River Settlement.
today, the Metis people have as much right to vote as any other Canadian citizen.
the metis people themselves didn't immigrate to north America from anywhere. they are the children of both European and aboriginal couples. metis people first "came" during the fur trade. hope that helps!
they look into their family history. if you have both aboriginal and European ancestry in you, you're metis!
yes. metis people are people of European AND aboriginal ancestry. For example, if a European came to north America and married a Cree woman, their children would be Metis.
