Louis Riel Day by Deborah L Delaronde
When a young boy is assigned a project about the fur trade by his teacher, he doesn't know who to turn to because his mom works all day. With help from his grandfather and the internet, they travel back in time and discover how the fur trade began, a new people emerged, the M tis' role in the fur trade, Louis Riel and the Red River Resistance, and the reason behind a holiday named Louis Riel Day.
Deborah L. Delaronde is M�tis and lives in central Manitoba on a cattle ranch along the western shores of Lake Winnipegosis. She honours her M�tis heritage by writing and publishing under her maiden name. Deborah's twelve published stories (with the exception of Friendship Bay and The Rabbit's Race) focus around M�tis protagonists with story situations that she hopes will convey the way of life of the M�tis people in both a historical and contemporary context. Louis Riel Day: The Fur Trade Project is Deborah's twelfth book. Deborah was the first recipient of the Beatrice Mosionier Aboriginal Writer of the Year Award in 2015.
