Louis Riel and what he did for the Metis is a very controversial topic, that being he is perceived as both a hero and a villain from fellow comrades of the Metis people, and the enemies, known as Thomas Scott and John Shultz. However, it is undeniable that he brought prosperity towards the people of the northwest, and was a genuine political figure in three ways; Riel proved his liability by creating a movement, giving the people a voice, and defending their way of life. In 1869, the Metis occupied

Collective rights are what makes Canada uniquely different from the other countries. These rights have grown more equal over time to shape Canada to become a fair and equitable governed society.

Talking about a very important person in history, Louis David Riel. Was Louis David Riel guilty or was he not guilty? Louis David Riel should be proved not guilty in the case of treason. If the government had kept their promises to the Meets and I, about the supplies that were promised to us. Treason is a crime of betraying one’s country. Louis Riel did not commit treason that was said against him. There was also an assault that stated he killed Thomas Scott. Thomas Scott was an employee of the Canadian

Of course, Albert knew Harold Gotitright controlled the planet, besides, the permanent stamp on the backside of his left wrist read – 2029 GOTITRIGHT. However, he didn’t know the history of the Gotitright family. So, without much ado, Albert nonchalantly sat behind his desk and opened the first edition, of ‘The Road to Glory: A Biography of the Gotitright Family’, written in 1908, by Doctor Herman Yarn, an eminent historian. As Albert flipped through the pages, he occasionally paused to read excerpts:

I believe Louis Riel fought for a good cause, but his ways of doing so were misguided. He stood up for the first nation’s rights and defended the Métis. He also helped bring Saskatchewan and Manitoba into the confederation. And he wrote up the list of rights.

In my opinion, I do believe it would have been better if Louis Riel and/or Gabriel Dumont were present at the battle of Fish Creek. The reason is because when there is a leader, there is a plan which can be created and when there is a plan, there is structure and order.
