Esmat: Ladies and Gentleman welcome to my show" Sit Down with Esmat". Some people think he is a hero but other people think he is a traitor With any futher a do please give a round of applause to the one and only ghost of Mr. Riel.



Esmat: Come on out Mr.Riel Mr. Riel how are you doing today, to honestly tell I never believed in ghost but I am talking to one right now and also it is a pleasure having on" Sit Down with Esmat". Also I hear you have a day named after you that must be something.


Riel: Well Esmat thank you for having me here on the show I am honored. Well Emsat yes it is and I want to thank those people that support me. Thank you all!!



Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


Esmat: Settle down now. So Louis can I call you that. I am going to ask you some questions about your past which was a long time ago.



Riel: Yeah sure what do you want to ask me.



Esmat: Well we will start out slow okay. Like tell me the basic stuff about you like when you were born and how was it living in a big family with 10 sibligs it must have been tough. Then we will get into the hard questions.



Riel: Well if you want to find out those stuff just go on google and find or I can tell you right now. Well I was born on 22, October, 1844 in Red River Colony. Also I died at the age of 41 which is probably not the best age too die because it is to early to die well I did try to fight for what was right but sometimes you die. Lastly, as everyone might know that I am the founder of a great province named Manitoba.


Esmat: OH okay. Well lets keep moving. Question number two: What is your main job when you were alive and what did you do to help contribute to Canada's future.






Riel: That is a good question. Well my job was when I was alive was that I was a Canadian Politican and to answer your second question was that the way that I help Canada future, was that I was the leader of this aboringnal group called Metis and I fought for their rights and to save their houses and their culture. Also I led 2 groups againest the government because they had disrespected the Metis. No one cared about the Metis so someone had to be their protecter and I chose my self.


Esmat: That is good to know that you were a canadain politican and helped so many people also it is good that you got people to help the people of Metis. Also good to know that there were good people back then as of now there isn't that much

Riel: Yes it was.

Esmat: Okay on to our next question. I heard that you lost but everyone loses at some point but I you shouldn't have lost. As I was saying can you tell us something about the groups that you led againest to face Sir John A. MacDonald.

Riel: Okay well as your other question this one is pretty good. Well Esmat the first group that I took fought from the year 1869-1870 and what the people called it was the Red River Rebellion.
We made a Provisional government and managed to get Manitoba into the Canadian Condfedration. The second rebellion was known as the North-Western Rebellion but that was the bad one because we lost and I lost my life. The way that I died was very bad but in the old time it was very common, I was hanged up. Also many of the Metis moved from Manitoba to Saskatchwan. Lastly this rebellion lasted only 3 months i the year 1855.

Esmat: Good so onto our last questions for the day. How do you feel about some people thinking that you are a traitor and others think that you are a hero for this great country.

Riel: Well to tell you the truth I don't care what people think but I think I have a reason why people think that I am a traitor because I led to groups agaianest MacDonald. Also I think that people hate me because I was helping a native group when I should have helped the government. I think people like me because I was a very good hero and yeah will bye.

Esmat: BYE CROWD!!!

Riel: Peace Guys

Esmat: Thank you Riel for being here BYE
