“At least 4,000 slaves have been identified in French Canada. Roughly 1,500 were Black, the other 2,500 were Indians.” There is considerable evidence demonstrating that Indian and Mixed-Blood slavery existed, in New France. This fact was emphasized by an @DarrylLeroux
English historian in 1906. “That the blot of slavery existed at one time in Canada is a fact mentioned by a few of our historical writers. Some gloss over the fact, others allude to it in a most casual manner, others are silent.”

A tortured people- the politics of colonization - Howard Adams - 1995-Metis History From Native Reality.- The historical emergence of the Metis population development differed from Indians, which has never been fully explored and clarified. There is more than a single source of
their origin. The French Metis, are one subgroup of the mixed-bloods who, including the English halfbreed, once composed two distinct societies. These societies were unique, inter-racial mixtures of Indians and Europeans that could trace their beginnings to the fur
trade. However, few records were kept by Europeans despite the fact that Metis formed the largest racial/cultural group in New France and the Red River region in the 17th and 18th centuries. #EasternMetis @DarrylLeroux
