Louis Riel, the government, First nations people
Louis Riel (1844-1885) was best known for being the leader of the Métis, who lived in the Canadian Prairies. He was an advocate for French rights in Canada, and forced the federal government at the time to give his settlement a provincial status, becoming the province of Manitoba. This Red River Rebellion/Resistance ended with the death of Thomas Scott, an Ontarian man that Riel had sentenced to death. He then fled to the United States. Returning to Canada later, Riel led the North-West Rebellion which resulted in his defeat, arrest, and death.
In 1885 Louis Riel was the leader of the Metis and first Nations people of western Canada against the Canadian government. After his capture in the North-West Rebellion, he stood trial and was found guilty of treason. He was then hanged.
