24 abr 1885 año - Battle of Fish Creek

Descripción:

On April 24, 1885, at Fish Creek, Saskatchewan, 200 Métis achieved a remarkable victory over a superior government force numbering 900 soldiers who were sent to quell the rebellion. The reversal, though not decisive enough to alter the outcome of the war, temporarily halted Major General Frederick Middleton, an officer commanding the Militia of Canada, advance on Batoche. That was where the Métis would later make their final stand.
