Louis Riel was exiled from Manitoba following the Red River Rebellion in 1870, which he led to protect the rights and land of the Métis people against the Canadian government's encroachment. After the rebellion, Riel's leadership and the conflict led to tensions with Canadian authorities, resulting in his decision to flee to the United States. His exile was also influenced by fears for his safety and the desire for a peaceful resolution. Riel's actions were seen as both a defense of Métis rights and a challenge to Canadian sovereignty.
