He rebelled against the Canadian Party (In which John A Macdonald led). Louis Riel originally took over the Red River Territory, which Canada was to buy from the Hudson Bay Company. But the surveyor's were on the land before December 1 (The official transfer date). Riel escaped to the USA and came back later, to help the Metis people because of being treated poorly from Macdonald and the Canadian Party. He was then caught, and hung in Regina, Saskatchewan.

Sir John A. Macdonald would usually be drunk by early afternoon, often by late morning. Macdonald would often ignore most of the affairs of state. He procrastinated over almost everything. He might sober up occasionally and deal with some issues, but his brain was so affected by long term alcohol abuse that many of the decisions he made were just plain wrong.
Canada's first prime minister, John A. Macdonald, was a chronic alcoholic. On many occasions, Macdonald's alcoholism interfered with the affairs of state. Often, when a crisis arose, Macdonald would go off on a drinking bender and be incapable of giving coherent directions, let alone competent leadership. Many times no one, not even his wife, knew where he was. As a result of Macdonald's drinking, parliament was often paralysed. Macdonald also became a very rich man through kickbacks, insider trading, and illicit campaign donations. Canadian taxpayers are still paying for Macdonald's involvement in the Grand Trunk Railway.
John A. MacDonald and George Brown were arguing about the nature and structure of Canadian Confederation.
