A few years back, i googled for Montana Indigenous Art and discovered the Metis who created a fusion of European and Indian art and an interesting take on violin music. I also discovered the whole saga of Louis Riel and his life's work as a great politician and leader of the Metis. I think it was in the Wolsley expedition that the fort Garry was militarily attacked by Ottawa and the attack repulsed which resulted in Louis Riel forming a provisional government for the Northwest Company's lands which he could have kept as a Metis homeland, but he was a loyal supporter of the Regency and he left before the governor arrived to surrender the lands to the governor Archibald. He went to live in the canebrakes of the Missouri in Montana and was well thought of as a local schoolteacher until he was recalled by Dumont to lead the Metis in a further conflict. They still celebrate a day for him in Choteau Montana. When i was growing up in Montana, they never told me a word about the Metis culture and so i was pretty surprised to find such a rich history with such colorful figures who had ethics and family and defended their way of life.

I wonder if the lack of employment was why our immigrant ancestor left the HBC and emigrated to S.E. Ontario.

We are especially against talking about warfare between Upper Canadians, the British, English-speaking and Protestant on one side and Métis, French-speaking Roman Catholic on the other. As wars go, these struggles weren't much--nothing like the American War of Independence or the American Civil War, for example, but very important to the foundation of Canada.

The "Scots Irish" from whom I descend, were troublesome Scots from the border between England and Scotland. The British Crown also wanted to control Irish lands, but few British bluebloods wanted to settle in Ireland, even to become landed gentry (Anglo-Irish). In the 17th century, the British Crown offered some Scots land in Ulster (Northern Ireland), on the condition that they kill or drive out the "excess population" of Irish who lived there. The Ulster Scots were expected to pay taxes on the land to the crown. These people were known as Scots Irish or Ulster Irish. These holdings were the first PLANTATIONS. Native Irish who survived invasion were made into indentured servants for crimes like speaking their own language. Many survivors were forced to become share-croppers on their ancestral land, and had fewer rights than medieval serfs. "Transportation" to the colonies was a public policy to "reduce the excess population" of poor and/or criminal English, Scots (and many more Irish). Some paid their own way, others were sentenced (for the crime of being poor) to serve for years as indentured servants, sold to the ship's captain, and resold as indentured servants in the colonies. In the Southern colonies of America, many English colonists Scots-Irish (a.k.a. Ulster Irish) Scots-Irish who could afford it, recreated the plantation system, but quickly found it more profitable to buy SLAVES, instead of using the Irish. After the Revolution, many well-to-do Tories (some English, others Scots Irish) fled to Canada with what they could afford to take with them. For their loyalty, the Crown offered them a little poor farmland, a rake, and a hoe.

The ties between Scotsmen and native tribes mentioned in the origin of the Metis has interesting counterparts in the southeastern United States. Traveling Scottish merchants married Creek women; the famous Creek chief Alexander McGillivray came from such a union. One Euchee chief invited a group of displaced Highlanders living in Georgia to come live near his people in Florida. Many of these mixed-blood people remained after the Removals, and well into the 20th century maintained customs which were clearly not European. They rarely considered themselves as Mestee, though.

This is what I heard on an Orkney tour and read in a half day at the Orkney museum.( Sort of a sport on my non scots family to see how many times they are related to themselves 1000 years ago.) Probably verifiable by DNA. At the great great grand parent level you should be able to spot 4rth cousins showing up with 8 to 20 cM of common DNA scattered across the world and make reasonable hunches. It is not uncommon o get 5000 cousins at that level, then you can get into some math and prove some of the hunches ( beyond me though). Glasgow is just a big genetic mix. It had a small population prior to 1746, after the slums were built 1780ish everyone from all over the highlands arrived. The west highland clans stuck together in sub communities. However now rhey are thoroughly intermixed to the extent that cousins from my mother's paternal and maternal great grandfather's families have had offspring. The English were not preferred by HBC because they often didn't survive the conditions (lacking knowledge, physcal and genetic stamina). Some knowledge of Scots Gallic/ Gàidhlig (not Gaelic) language sometimes gives hints at how a name can be anglicized Rebecca could have started out as Beathag ; the masculine is Beathan. Or she could have just taken an everyday English name the same way Chinese immigrants do today. Marion seems to have some members in Scotland and Breton (Brithonic speakers in France pre Roman ) which wouldnt be unexpected given links between Scotland and France or Norman forces mixing into Scotland.

Instead the Militia for the most part stayed on top of the Coulee (except for a few advances into the Coulee).

Yeah First Nations have had various relationships with Metis, Inuits, And Europeans and much of them were not pleasant, happy, exiting, or great yeah

Good answer !We forget that war leads to war ,pushing populations onto the next one and so on .There are many deserted remains of villages here about in Aberdeenshire.Mostly created by the clans Lairds preferring the more profitable sheep to their own folk

Oh and the crown still owed the land the English are Anglican in the Hudson Bay

If only the Metis and the Highlanders had joined forces against the predatory trading companies and the British government :/

Of Highland Scottish decent. Family driven off Highland estate which was confiscated by the British as Jacobite property during the Highland Clearances after the Jacobite Rising of 1745 and for supporting Bonnie Prince Charlie to keep Scotland free of British rule.Yes they were rebels to the British. Family fled to North America.Many others probably died as cannon fodder for the mighty British Empire.They fled with nothing but the clothes on their back and no probably settled in Nefoundland and other places in Canada.Many Scottish and French men wanted to take on First Nations women as wives, helping to create the Metis in Canada.

Yeah! 85% of the HBC employees were Orcadian. My husband's great--great-grandfather like his father before him had worked for the HBC. His father, John Inkster's contract has come to light. He worked in what is now the Quebec area of Hudson's Bay. My husband's great-great-grandfather moved to Madoc area of S.E. Ontario in 1821, when the HBC & NWC merged. A lot of unemployment in the fur trade was created by that merger so, I guess, that's why William Inkster moved to Eastern Ontario.

There are people who are culturally Metis ( French and Indigenous Manitobans ) but the word is also used by multiracial indigenous people who do not have French heritage. Manitoba still has serious issues surrounding racism towards indigenous peoples and they have the highest rates of poverty in the country, which is ironic since basically every settler family here is either related or is close to Metis\ Indigenous people's.

Canadians in Upper Canada, after Confederation in 1867 spoke mostly English. They were the ones in favour of taking over the southern Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia because it meant more taxes so the Upper Canadians could build a railway out to British Columbia shortly after Confederation and take over lands owned by the Hudson Bay Company. The people in Lower Canada and northern part of New Brunswick spoke mostly French and were Roman Catholic. Many powerful people, though, in Quebec and in New Brunswick spoke English and very few of them spoke French. In the West around Fort Garry (Winnipeg) there were half-breed families and Métis families. These families moved throughout the West including in the American West. These people might speak English or French or a native language or 2 or 3. Louis Riel spoke French and English. The Métis and half breeds considered themselves superior to the natives who still lived a nomadic life on the Prairie. The documentary skipped over Riel's ties with Quebec. He also tried to interest the American government in his cause, but it wasn't biting.

This isn't a success story. Look at what manitoba is now, and tell me if THIS is what they had in mind
