The Townshend Acts applied duties (taxes) to paper, paint, lead, glass, and tea imported by the colonies. Townshend had studied the colonist's distinction between internal and external taxes and he believed his duties were external as none of the products, except tea, could be made in the colonies. The colonists did not agree with his thinking and the result was a colonial boycott against British products. Trade between England and America fell off by 50 percent as a result of the boycott. The British merchants complained to Parliament who repealed the Townshend Duties except the tax on tea. The tea tax was kept in honor of the Declaratory Act. Parliament passed that act to declare that they did have the right to tax the colonies regardless of the American claim of internal or external taxation.

Louis Riel played a pivotal role in bringing the Manitoba Act to life by leading the Red River Resistance, which sought to address the grievances of the Métis people regarding land rights and governance. After negotiating with the Canadian government, Riel helped draft the Manitoba Act, which established the province of Manitoba and outlined rights for the Métis, including land provisions. His leadership and advocacy ensured that the act included protections for the Métis culture and language, effectively shaping the new province's identity. Upon the act's passage in 1870, Riel returned to Manitoba to help implement its provisions, solidifying his legacy as a key figure in the province's creation.
