Lois Reil: A Hero Or Villain

Louis Riel was a strong and devoted political leader. He was someone who cared greatly for his people, the Metis. He was very persistent in every one of his opinions. He was extremely single-minded and pertinacious which compelled many people to claim that he was insane. He was well-educated but disliked among the British because he of his racial background. Louis Riel was both a hero and a traitor. To the Metis people he was seen as an honorable hero because he protected his people and his land from the British. From the British point of view, he was seen as a threat and a criminal. In my opinion he should be remembered as a hero and should have been found not guilty.

“Homeostasis in a general sense refers to stability or balance in a system. It is the body's attempt to maintain a constant internal environment. Maintaining a stable internal environment requires constant monitoring and adjustments as conditions change” (Human Physiology/Homeostasis, 2016). Negative feedback will operate to return Mrs. Loiselle’s body back to homeostasis in such a way her body, system responds in which it reverse the direction of changes.

As Mrs. Loiselle’s fainted by going for the run without eating something from last evening that made her week and she lost an enormous amount of energy in her exercise through sweating continuously.

A prime example of how L’Ouverture was a hero was his great support of the slaves of Haiti. He encouraged them to fight for their rights and their freedom from their oppressive owners. In spite of the fact that he had been a free man for a while, and his life would have undoubtedly been easier if he quietly enjoyed that freedom, his heroic and compassionate instinct showed forth as he unwaveringly supported the slaves of Haiti throughout their struggle for freedom.

Why people believed that he would be a hero is because, they didn't know what was happening on his ship or in America so they thought he we being honest and believed that he was the first one to fine America. But many others believed that he was a villain because he was taking credit for something he

The Marquis de Lafayette is best remembered for the part he played in the American War of Independence. He contributed in helping the Americans gain free control over the colonies by breaking away from British home rule. For sixty years he fought with consistency and insight for political ideals and social reforms that have dominated the history of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Hence, Lafayette can be attributed to the spreading of liberty and freedom throughout America and France. Therefore, he is viewed as a symbol of liberalism in a once absolutist world.

Louis is known for being a hero in numerous ways. Being in the Olympics to prison camps changed him to the person who was capable of bring a revered hero. Laura Hillenbrand explores the many reasons Louie is known for being an outrageous hero in Unbroken through biographical and historical lenses.

He is looked upon in a heroic way for fighting the justice system and showing courage, strength and ability to resist laws through making his own lifestyle, with separate beliefs, attitudes and values. He was a friend of the poor, kind to women and children, and an enemy of the rich. He was forced into crime by the harsh harassments of the authorities. He said to have died bravely against the more powerful forces of the law. He has grown to be an admired infamous figure for the way he stood up to authority and his larrikin ways.

This quote from history.com describes why he was liked by many. “By ‘destroying’ German Max Schmeling in their second encounter in 1938, as Adolf Hitler and the Nazis rose to power, Louis provided some assurance that America’s best could beat the best that Germany had to offer. Louis continued to win approval thereafter by joining the army.” This quote shows that Louis loves his country and is humble about his victories, which started to unify Whites and Blacks. Before Joe Louis had fought that night, many Black Americans looked up to him as a symbol of hope for Blacks’ to be treated equally. In this quote from I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings on page 135, Maya accurately depicts what that fight meant for every Black American living in the South. “My race groaned. It was our people falling. It was another lynching, yet another Black man hanging on a tree. A Black boy whipped and maimed. It was hounds on the trail of a man running through slimy swamps. It was a white woman slapping her maid for being forgetful.” Maya shows what Black Americans thought after their hero was struck down. She knew that if Louis would have lossed. Whites and Blacks would have never

He reblled against the government as they were trying to take his peoples rightful land. By the metis, he is a hero. No matter the consequences he stood up for their rights which led him to his death leaving children behind. By others he is labelled as a traitor or a killer after an ordeal with a man named Thomas Scott. Scott was an unruly, racist, and mean prisoner who had several confrontations with Louis Riel. Unsurprisingly, Louis Riel notified officials which ultimatley led to Scott's execution, to this day people still blame Riel for Scotts death. Despite the contriversy Louis Riel will remain as a Metis Hero and founder of the province Manitoba even with the lable "traitor" on his grave. This man has sacrificed his Family, his job, his sanity, and even his own life to defend what he believed was right and for that, many people will be forever grateful. Unfortunatly Louis Riel's legacy will not impact the future as Metis still have few rights but he will always be a referrence andwill continue to do his job which is spreading awareness on this famous political

Louis Riel was one of the most controversial figures in Canadian history, and even to this day – more than a century after his execution – he continues to be remembered. Many believed him to be a villain; others saw him as a hero. So who was he really? Born in St. Boniface at the Red River Settlement of Canada (present-day Winnipeg, Manitoba) on October 22, 1844, Louis Riel hoped one day to follow his father’s footsteps and become a great Métis leader just like him. Eventually, Riel was seen as a hero to the French-speaking Métis. In the Canadian West, however, most people regarded him as a villain due to his execution in 1885. Nevertheless, Louis Riel was not really a villain by heart; only a flawed man who made many mistakes in his life.

The first reason Louis Riel should be viewed as a hero is due to his noble acts at the Red River Settlement. Louis Riel continued to respect the English people despite their attempt at taking over his land. He allowed the English people to become part of the provisional government he created. He also, gave them an equal number of representatives even though they were in the minority. Furthermore, Louis Riel helped Manitoba to become a province and join the Confederation. That happened since if Louis Riel had never stopped the English people from taking over the Red River settlement, Manitoba would have never been formed. Louis Riel also sent Father Ritchot to Ottawa in order to discuss the creation of Manitoba with John A. Macdonald.

Wiebo Ludwig was a Dutch immigrant to Canada who studied to become a pastor at Calvin Theological Seminary in Michigan before going back to Goderich in Ontario to lead two churches. He started a small farming settlement just outside of Hythe in Alberta and as time went by, the small community named “Trickle Creek” grew in land mass and population. The people inhabiting the land were majorly his supporters. Ludwig is considered a folk hero by many people but is irrefutably associated with series of actions that do not befit a hero. His approach to opposing oil and gas exploration activities in and near Trickle Creek gives insight into his character.

Canada’s history is rich and full of many characters. One such character is Sir John A. Macdonald. He was the first prime minister of Canada and is the most controversial to this date. Many people state that he is a hero of Canada, while others think of him as a drunk racist. Although the arguments against him are weak and do not consider things from his point of view. Sir John A. Macdonald was a hero to Canada due to his visionary beliefs, him being a father of confederation, and his role as first prime minister of Canada.

Louis Riel was hanged for treason on November 16, 1885, but was he a real villain? Louis Riel was a national hero because he stood up for Metis rights and therefore, the trial and consequences he faced was unjust. It was the Canadian government that broke the promises and treated the Metis poorly. The Metis' rights to the lands, culture, education, and economic foundation were disappearing once again. Surveyors began to arbitrary divide the land of the newly formed District of Saskatchewan, in which many of the Metis moved into after the Red River Rebellion, into the square concession system. They were starving because of the reduction of a number of bisons, which were their primary source of food. The Hudson Bay Company treated the Metis terribly,

Robert Ross’ whole life he grew up in a household where they did what was expected of them, rather than what was right. The type of people that Findley place in Robert’s life is what molds him into the type of character he becomes. Timothy Findley manipulates what a hero is supposed to be, by making Robert Ross a distorted kind of hero. Robert Ross exemplifies anti-heroism throughout the text because of his need to be a savior but inability to do so, his morals and his connection with animals.
