Riel's Ghost
S1 • E2 Mar 11, 2007 45m
At the height of the Metis uprising in Saskatchewan in 1870, its leader Louis Riel tried and executed his sworn enemy, Thomas Scott, and allegedly had his body dropped through a hole in a frozen river--never to be seen again. The uproar caused by that execution would eventually result in Riel's own execution in 1885. The history books say that was the end of the matter. But was it?
