Today in Labor History March 19, 1885: Louis Riel declared a provisional government in Saskatchewan, marking the start of the North-West Rebellion. At the same time the Métis people rose up against the Canadian government, there was an associated uprising by First Nations Cree and Assiniboine. However, Riel’s movement had a heavily religious tone that alienated most Indigenous tribes, as well as some Métis. Nevertheless, he had the allegiance of 200 armed Métis, a few other Indigenous warriors, and at least one white man. About 91 people died in the fighting that occurred that spring before the rebellion collapsed.

Today is #LouisRiel Day, which marks the anniversary of Riel’s execution in 1885, a year before #Canada was even a nation state. We’ll never forget. #Metis #Resistance #History https://www.metisnation.org/culture-heritage/louis-riel-day/

@louisrcouture Not really. The PCs would only win a handful of seats in Québec in elections. The exception was when they were led by #BrianMulroney and the Liberals by a non-Quebecker. Otherwise very little support since the hanging of #LouisRiel .
If you asked a *Toronto Star* subscriber which society is a "progressist, secular, liberal and universalist society" she'd answer that it's obviously English Canada (minus those crazy right-wingers in Alberta), not Québec.
