There were actually two uprisings led by Louis Riel in what are now Manitoba and Saskatchewan: The Red River Rebellion of 1869 and the Northwest Rebellion of 1885.
Although Louis Riel was convicted of High Treason, in the opinion of many Canadians he was definitely not a traitor. He led a movement attempting to assert the rights of the people of mixed European and aboriginal descent in what is now the province of Manitoba against the incursions of the Canadian government. This resulted in some battles with Canadian military and police personnel, and some deaths. However, it cannot be clearly stated that Riel's actions were unjustifiable, making him a traitor.
Some people see Louis Riel as a criminal because he set up his own provisional government at Batoche. He was filed for treason against the government so some people might say so. But, Louis Riel's actions also resulted in the creation of some of our promises, and he brought about issues that the First Nations and Metis were having to the government. Some people don't think he's a criminal, but should be considered a Father of Confederation.
Louis Riel was the reason Manitoba was created. The metis were being treated unfairly so Louis Riel made a petition to make this happen and surprisingly it happened. Although it couldn't just happen instantly, it took alot of courage to make this happen, you needed to get a petition started and create a list of rights for the province and the people that will live in it like all provinces. Although it wasn't a very big piece of land, the metis and other people still appreciated it. anonymous.
Louis Riel was born into a prominent Métis family in the Red River Settlement (now Manitoba) in 1844. He faced challenges growing up, including conflict between his Métis heritage and European schooling, which shaped his views of inequality and injustice in Canadian society. His upbringing laid the foundation for his later leadership in Métis resistance movements and his fight for Métis rights.
