Storyboard Text

  • North-West ResistanceDespite repeated petitions from Dumont that the Canadian government recognize the Métis as a self-governing people, the government refused. In 1874, the North-West Mounted Police (NWMP) were sent out. Dumont led the Metis alongside Louis Riel, who became the leader of the Métis in western Canada, during the Northwest Rebellion of 1885. Dumont's small army was far less equipped than the NWMP. On March 26, 1885, a battle near Duck Lake resulted in the deaths of both Mounties and Métis, although the Métis maintained that they fought in self-defense. Dumont was shot in the head during this battle but survived. In April and May of 1885 more battles occurred at Fish Creek and the Métis settlement of Batoche. The Métis were defeated and Riel surrendered. Dumont helped move the women and children to safety before fleeing to the United States.
  • Tidligt liv M é tis-leder Gabriel Dumont blev født i december 1837 i Red River Settlement (nu kaldet Manitoba, Canada) til Isidore Dumont og Louise Lafromboise. Han havde en begrænset uddannelse og kunne ikke læse, men kunne tale syv sprog: Michif, Blackfoot, Sioux, Cree, Crow, fransk og noget engelsk. Gabriels familie var en respekteret M é tis buffalo jagtfamilie. De lærte ham at jage og fælde. De handlede pemmican og gemmer sig med Hudson's Bay Company. Gabriel voksede til at være en dygtig skytte og rytter. Han lærte diplomati i en tidlig alder, da han ledsagede sin far for at underskrive traktater mellem M étis og Dakota og med Blackfoot.
  • Gabriel Dumont
  • (1837-1906) "Buffalo hunter, diplomat, humanitarian, M é tis Leader"
  • Politisk fremtrædende plads Dumont blev valgt til chef for jagten på Saskatchewan Metis i 1863 - 1881. I løbet af denne tid var bøffelbesætningerne i tilbagegang. Dumont så, at de øgede bosættere ville have en permanent effekt på prærier. Han dannede en regering for Metis-bosættelsen St. Laurent på South Saskatchewan-floden med en formel, skriftlig forfatning. Som præsident formidlede han tvister og forsøgte at forhindre, at Metis land blev overhalet af Sir John Macdonalds canadiske regering.
  • Later Life  Dumont was a wanted man in Canada so he remained in the United States for a while. He even briefly joined Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West Show. Dumont returned to Batoche in 1893. He dictated his memoirs of the North-West Resistance to friends. but they were not published until 2009. They are titled Gabriel Dumont Speaks. Dumont died in May 1906 of heart failure.
  • Dumont huskes som en jæger, kriger og leder, der kæmpede tapper for at opretholde M é tis-folks rettigheder, land og autonomi. Han er en populær folkehelt husket i mange sange, digte, bøger og kunstværker såvel som navngivet i mange M é tis-institutioner.
