Sketchbook: Sketchbook XVII
The Red River (or Wolseley) Expedition was a military force under the leadership of Colonel Garnet Wolseley. It was authorized to confront the Métis in 1870, during the Red River Rebellion (Red River Resistance). The expedition was also intended to counter potential American expansionist actions. Following an arduous journey, the expedition arrived at Upper Fort Garry, ended Louis Riel's Provisional Government and eliminated the threat of American expansionism.
