In 1885, the Métis leader Louis Riel returned from exile to lead a rebellion that ended in defeat and a trial that still haunts Canada. This episode follows Riel from his childhood at Red River through the Red River Resistance and his years in Montana, to the North-West Rebellion at Batoche and his trial for high treason in Regina. We explore the conflicting evidence on his mental state, the jury's refusal to recommend mercy, and Prime Minister Sir John A. Macdonald's insistence on execution. The trial became a flashpoint for tensions between English and French Canada, and between Indigenous and settler visions of Confederation. We also meet key figures like Gabriel Dumont, the Métis buffalo hunter turned military commander, and the prosecutors who painted Riel as either a mad prophet or a calculating traitor. More than a century later, Riel remains a controversial symbol of resistance and reconciliation. #LouisRiel #RedRiverResistance #NorthWestRebellion #Métis #Batoche #SirJohnAMacdonald #GabrielDumont #Treason #CanadianHistory #IndigenousRights #Manitoba #1885 #Regina #Trial #Saskatchewan #Confederation #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
