The Riel family moved back to&nbsp;Lower Canada&nbsp;while Louis was a child. He was educated in&nbsp;Quebec, learning the trade of&nbsp;carding&nbsp;wool. He joined the fur trade with the&nbsp;Hudson's Bay Company&nbsp;in 1838 and was stationed at&nbsp;Rainy River,&nbsp;Ontario&nbsp;for several years, where he fathered a daughter named Marguerite in 1840. He left the HBC in 1842 and returned to Quebec with the intention of joining the priesthood at the&nbsp;Oblates of Mary Immaculate&nbsp;at&nbsp;Saint-Hilaire, but withdrew a year later. He returned to the&nbsp;Canadian West, settling in the&nbsp;Red River Settlement&nbsp;on a river lot in&nbsp;Saint-Boniface&nbsp;(now a district of modern&nbsp;Winnipeg,&nbsp;Manitoba). He married Julie Lagimodi&egrave;re, daughter of voyageur&nbsp;Jean-Baptiste Lagimodi&egrave;re&nbsp;and his wife,&nbsp;Marie-Anne Gaboury&nbsp;in January, 1844. Together they had eleven children, and by all accounts formed a devout and close-knit family.</p><p style="margin-: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; line-height: 1.5em;">Louis Riel Sr. was an active participant in the Red River M&eacute;tis community. Riel emerged as a M&eacute;tis leader in the defence of&nbsp;Guillaume Sayer&nbsp;in his trial in May 1849. This trial was a defining moment in the fall of the&nbsp;Hudson's Bay Company's monopoly of the fur trade. Riel continued to fight for the rights of the M&eacute;tis and was instrumental in them gaining representation on the&nbsp;Council of Assiniboia&nbsp;and for French to be used in the&nbsp;Assiniboia&nbsp;courts as well as English.</p><p style="margin-: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; line-height: 1.5em;">Riel also established businesses in the Red River Settlement. In 1847, he opened a small mill on his farm with the support of chief factor&nbsp;John Ballendenwith the hope of establishing a&nbsp;fulling&nbsp;mill operation in the settlement. But Riel had little success with his fulling mill. He also attempted to open and operate a carding and grist mill, hence his title of "miller of the&nbsp;Seine", but to little success. Finally, in 1857, Riel attempted to establish a textile industry in the settlement, but the venture failed.</p><p style="margin-: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; line-height: 1.5em;">Although he was not a successful businessman, he showed great leadership within the M&eacute;tis community. His son Louis was likely influenced greatly by his father's actions. Louis Jr. continued in his father's steps to become the most famous M&eacute;tis leader and the "Father of Manitoba". When Louis Riel Sr. died January 21, 1864, his death was mourned by the entire settlement.</p><p style="margin-: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; line-height: 1.5em;"><span style="line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 0.8em;">***</span></p><p style="margin-: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; line-height: 1.5em;"><span style="line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 0.8em;">From:&nbsp;</span>http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&amp;GRid=113794248&nbsp;10 Sep 2013:</p><p style="margin-: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; line-height: 1.5em;"><span style="font-size: 14.44444465637207px; line-height: normal; background-color: #dcd0cf;">Farmer, miller, Metis leader. The son of Jean-Baptiste Riel, a french-canadian voyageur, and Marguerite Boucher, a Metis of French-Canadian and Chipeweyan ancestry, he was sent by his father to Berthier-en-Haut, Quebec where he baptized Sept. 23, 1822, to be educated.&nbsp;</span><br style="font-size: 14.44444465637207px; line-height: normal; background-color: #dcd0cf;"><br style="font-size: 14.44444465637207px; line-height: normal; background-color: #dcd0cf;"><span style="font-size: 14.44444465637207px; line-height: normal; background-color: #dcd0cf;">He was trained as a wool carder, then returned to the Red River Settlement where he married Julie Lagimodiere.</span><br style="font-size: 14.44444465637207px; line-height: normal; background-color: #dcd0cf;"><br style="font-size: 14.44444465637207px; line-height: normal; background-color: #dcd0cf;"><span style="font-size: 14.44444465637207px; line-height: normal; background-color: #dcd0cf;">He organized his community in defense of Pierre-Guillaume Sayer, charged with violating the Hudson's Bay Company's trade monopoly, leading to the first North West M&eacute;tis rebellion of 1849.</span><br style="font-size: 14.44444465637207px; line-height: normal; background-color: #dcd0cf;"><br style="font-size: 14.44444465637207px; line-height: normal; background-color: #dcd0cf;"><span style="font-size: 14.44444465637207px; line-height: normal; background-color: #dcd0cf;">Father of&nbsp;</span>Louis David Riel<span style="font-size: 14.44444465637207px; line-height: normal; background-color: #dcd0cf;">, Metis Leader and Founding father of Manitoba.</span></p><span style="float: right; margin-: 5px; font-size: 13px;">[edit]</span></div><div>&nbsp;</div>
