Question

creating a new provisional

government,
Riel and Dumont saw how the federal government ignored the Métee, as well
as the First Nations and other settlers in the Northwest. The two men were
convinced they had to take more drastic action. The group organized an
army of about 300 men and signed a secret oath, partly shown in Figure 4.3.
How do you think the federal government would react to seeing this oath?
On March 19, 1885, Riel created a provisional government like the one he
had set up in Manitoba in 1870. Riel, who had begun to refer to himself as a
“Prophet of the New World" was appointed president. Dumont was chosen
to lead the militia. The federal government grew concerned about another
possible Méteeresistance. On March 22, the federal government alerted
government troops to prepare for possible action in the Northwest.,

The federal government's reaction to the secret oath signed by Riel and Dumont would likely be one of concern and alarm. With an army of 300 men organized and a provisional government established, the potential for Méteeresistance was clear. As Riel proclaimed himself the "Prophet of the New World" and Dumont took on the role of militia leader, the federal government had to act swiftly. On March 22, 1885, government troops were alerted to prepare for possible action in the Northwest, as tensions escalated between the provisional government and federal authorities.
