Louis Riel -- Founder of Manitoba / Father of Confederation

Louis Riel Quotes:
"I am glad the Crown have proved that I am the leader of the half-breeds in the Northwest. I will perhaps be one day acknowledged as more than a leader of the half-breeds, and if I am, I will have an opportunity of being acknowledged as a leader of good in this great country."
"I am more convinced everyday that without a single exception I did right. And I have always believed that, as I have acted honestly, the time will come when the people of Canada will see and acknowledge it."
"In a little while it will be over. We may fail. But the rights for which we contend will not die."
Louis Riel, May 6, 1885, Batoche, N.W.T.
"Yes, I have done my duty. During my life I have aimed at practical results. I hope that after my death my spirit will bring practical results. All that I have done and risked... Rested certainly on the conviction that I was called upon to do something for my country I know that through the grace of God I am the founder of Manitoba."

The People’s Party warned Canadians from the very beginning.

While others parroted the establishment line, we stood up for the truth and championed the victims of vaccine mandates:

Maxime Bernier was arrested for peacefully opposing lockdowns and mandates.
In 2024, the Supreme Court refused to even hear his constitutional challenge to vaccine mandates—brought forward with former Newfoundland Premier Brian Peckford.
In the 2025 election, we proudly ran Dr. David Speicher, a PhD in Health Sciences and published expert on COVID misinformation, as a PPC candidate in Ontario.
We stood for bodily autonomy, informed consent, and medical freedom—when it wasn’t popular.

But today, the data is undeniable. And the victims are real.
