"Louis Riel Day is held every year on November 16 across the M茅tis homelands. November 16 is the anniversary of Riel鈥檚 execution in 1885. During that year, Riel led M茅tis people in the Northwest Resistance, which was a stand against the Government of Canada because it was encroaching on Metis rights and our way-of-life."
