Their settlement within the territory of Quebec created an acute political problem. The policy of the British government, as ex- gergssed by the Quebec Act, had n based on the assumption that the French-Canadian element would constitute a. majority in the Colony. But now that. assumpti seemed no longer valid. Due to the influx of the Ioyaliatl. the French-Canadian element found it;- seif in a minority. Consequently, these new settlers,,who had come w Quebec at. the invitation of the British government, began to be dissatisfied with the French civil law, the French land. system and the existing form of government. They wished to hold their lands according w the English system of tenure with which they had been familiar in their former homes, the desired to have their disputes settod by inference to the English law, and they desired to have, at least. representative government. 'I'ireir com atriots who migrated to Nova Bcota enjoyed the privileges of English lsw and representative government. The British govor-nmnnt. was forc- ed to do something. Several els- mcnu entered into the ‘ tannin tlon of Britain's new Canadian policy.

Just as the party was ready to proceed, ap- proachln human footsteps were heard. e horses were led inside the fort and once again the weary travellers prepared to do battle against an unseen enemy.

The advance of the Ameri- can railways into the far West had broilgirt the hunters, who killed the buffalo by tens of thousands for furs. By 1885 the buffalo had become extinct. The advance of the white man's civilization like- wine drove the fur-bearing animals further afield, and the native and the half-breed found it more dif- ficult to procure the furs which they traded at the store for goods. In the old days, furs constituted the chief source of the Incllarrs wealth and enabled him to buy the necessities of life; riow, however, land was becoming the commodity atest; value. The half- b . realizing the chan de- manded the same grant of and as had been made to the Manitoba Metla and insisted that. patents (be issued st once fro those already r ‘on of lands. He felt that he had a just. claim to the lands over which his ancestors had roamed and which he himself oc- cupied. but his claim could not; be used for the purchase of goods until he obtained legal title from government. The whim trad- wiilh a1 titles ho their lands, for their half-breed would have bins of value which could be sold and with which his debts to the trader could be paid. Representation was mule at 0t- tswa from the white settlers, urg- "8 the zvvcmment, to grant the lands to the half-breeds, but the ministers seemed una/ble to reach s decision. The delay proved fatal. In the summer of i884, at a secret meeting attended by whites, as well as half-breeds. t was decided ask Inuis Riel. then living in Montana to come to the Bu- beirmvari. Riel reached Bawche in Jilly. 1884. and in March, 1685, following the Red River procedure, organised a provisional government, cf which he became resident.
