The History of the Metis

In Metis' history, the people of Metis are French and partly Indian. Their leadership is called Luirier. Following the Hudson Bay Company Alliance and the Northwestern Company in 1821, trade was restructured to reduce expenses. Since fur trading is no longer competitive, there is no need to have more than two positions in a trade area. As a result, some positions were closed and the number of brigades declined. With this restructuring, Metis was unemployed for many years in fur trading.

A few years ago at a meeting held at Saskatchewan University, a gentleman sitting at my desk casually asked about my current research. I made a rather ambiguous answer to the use of the social and cultural history and genealogical reconstruction of Metiz people from the Sacramento community in northwest Saskatchewan. His curiosity aroused his interest and my colleague asked me that my central argument was on specific Metis and their community.

Canadian colonial rule brought female Christian customs. From the late eighteenth century to the middle of the nineteenth century the Catholic mission and school changed many Metiz people who incorporated it into existing spiritual beliefs rather than completely replacing the customs such as Catholic masses and festivals. Other French Catholic customs adopted by Metis include traditional prayers, use of the Rosary and faith to the saints - indeed, St. Joseph of Nazareth is regarded as a supporter of Metis. In addition to Catholic customs, indigenous customs were escaped. These practices include the use of sweat cabins, phlegmans and sacred pipes
