For example, the actions considered rebellious in 1869 were undertaken by Riel as the leader of a government recognized by Canada as in legitimate control of territory that did not belong to Canada; Canada negotiated the Manitoba Act with this government. After these "rebellions", land speculators and other non-Métis effectively deprived the Métis of land by exploiting a government program for its purchase, with the government perhaps turning a blind eye. The province of Alberta distributed land to Métis in 1938 to correct what it believed to be an inequity, but Saskatchewan and Manitoba have not followed Alberta's lead. 3. ^http://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/riel_louis_1844_85_11E.html 4. ^http://www.metismuseum.ca/media/document.php/11995.Douglas%20Cardinal.pdf 5. ^Jacoby-Smith, Jennifer.
