The Canada we see today. The reactions to the rebellions resulting in Canadian troops forcing their will on their new acquisitions. They created a paramilitary group based on a force being used by Britain to control the rebellious Irish. This Paramilitary force is today called the RCMP.
The rebellions forced Canada to build a railway so they could transfer troops faster in the case of such rebellions, a railway used to bring BC into the Confederation.
The final result of the rebellions has yet to be played out but safe to say the West and it's "discontent" has shaped today's Canada.
After the North West Rebellion in 1885, the Métis people faced significant repression and marginalization. Many were displaced from their lands, and their rights were largely ignored by the Canadian government. The rebellion's defeat led to a loss of political power for the Métis, and they experienced cultural assimilation pressures. Additionally, many Métis individuals were left impoverished and disenfranchised, leading to ongoing struggles for recognition and rights in the following decades.
The North-West Rebellion of 1885 was crucial for the Métis as it symbolized their struggle for rights and recognition within Canada. Led by Louis Riel, the rebellion aimed to address grievances related to land rights, cultural preservation, and political representation. Although ultimately unsuccessful, it highlighted the Métis plight and galvanized a sense of identity and unity among them. The rebellion also prompted the Canadian government to eventually acknowledge some Métis rights, although many issues remained unresolved.
During the North-West Rebellion of 1885, Louis Riel emerged as a leader for the Métis people, advocating for their rights and land claims in the face of encroaching Canadian settlement. He established a provisional government in Saskatchewan and sought to negotiate with the Canadian government for Métis rights. Riel's leadership led to a series of confrontations, including the Battle of Batoche, ultimately resulting in the defeat of his forces. Following the rebellion, Riel was captured, tried for treason, and executed, becoming a controversial figure in Canadian history.
