The Western settlement significantly impacted the Métis by disrupting their traditional lifestyle and diminishing their access to land and resources. As settlers moved westward, they encroached on Métis territories, leading to conflicts over land rights and cultural practices. This encroachment contributed to the marginalization of the Métis, as they faced increasing pressures to assimilate and adapt to the dominant Euro-Canadian society. Additionally, the loss of hunting grounds and economic opportunities forced many Métis into poverty and social instability.
