Celebrate Louis Riel Day

We mark Louis Riel Day annually on November 16 across the Métis homelands. This date marks the anniversary of Riel’s execution in 1885 for leading the Northwest Resistance. Riel led the rebellion as federal authorities contested Métis nationhood. This day has since served as a time to commemorate the struggle for Métis rights and celebrate Métis culture and resilience.
