    Greetings, I am Gabriel Dumont. Born in 1837 in Red River, I rose to prominence as a leader of the Métis people during the tumultuous times of the North-West Rebellion. My experiences in battles such as Batoche, Fish Creek, and Duck Lake shaped my path, as did my negotiations with the Blackfoot tribe. Despite my humble beginnings and lack of formal education, I became known for my skills in buffalo hunting and my ability to communicate in multiple languages. Join me as I share the story of our struggle for justice and sovereignty.
