November 1869 CE

The Council of Assiniboia had made a final attempt to assert its authority on November 16, when Governor Mactavish issued a proclamation ordering the Métis to lay down their arms.

Instead, on November 23, Riel proposes the formation of a provisional government to enter into direct negotiations with Canada.

The Anglophone delegates request adjournment to discuss matters.
