The colony was a challenge to missionaries who set out to create an English rural parish at the forks of the Red and Assiniboine. They believed and taught that indolence - the unchristian nomadic lifestyle of the buffalo hunt - must be replaced by the work of die Lord: agriculture. The traditional fur-trade marriage must be replaced by the Christian marriage which, they insisted, was the parent not the child of civil society; the Christian marriage, however, could never correct the disastrous dilution of die Britannic race by Indian blood. In the strife of blood that followed, Red River became a society in which White looked down on mixed-blood, Catholic suspected Protestant, Halfbreed distrusted MÃÂ tis and clergy opposed the officers of the Hudson's Bay Company.

Why are they excluded from a national identity? What factors formed the strong MÃÂ tis identity?

This original and provocative book provides some of the answers. "-Illustrated.…
