The Red River Resistance of eighteen sixty-nine to eighteen seventy and the Rebellion of eighteen eight-five were important events in Canadian history. These events of Canadian history shaped the future of the Metis people in the west and Canada as a country. The Canadian government wanted to create country that went from ocean to ocean so they purchased Rupert’s Land. This leads to Riel becoming an important figure for the Metis people in the west. Louis Riel then leads the Metis people through
The Red River Resistance occurred in Red River because the Canadian government was making plans that involved this settlement directly. They wanted to build a road from Fort Garry, located in the Red River Colony, to the Lake of the Woods, as well as an eventual railway to link the area to the rest of Canada. The Canadian government also appointed William McDougall as the first lieutenant governor. On October 11, 1869, Riel received a visit from his Cousin Andre Nault who told him that surveyors
