This article on the Northwest Rebellion offers students multiple interpretations of the events, stating the "dominant society tends to ask- How did this happen?", but the Alberta Online Encyclopedia tries to incorporate the Metis view of the encounter that still reverberates with Metis today. A chronology of events are presented based on University of Saskatchewan archival documents. Many links to related sub pages are included.
