Métis Week at Mount Royal celebrates the culture, history and contributions of the Métis people. Mount Royal is hosting events to increase representation and affirm the validity of Métis knowledge on campus, and provide opportunities for students and employees to connect with, share and celebrate unique Métis culture.

On November 16, Métis people pay tribute to Louis Riel by holding a commemorative ceremony on the date of his execution. In addition to recognizing Louis Riel Day on November 16, the Otipemisiwak Métis Government has declared the week surrounding November 16 as “Métis Week.” The week is also devoted to commemorating the strengths and sacrifices of the Métis who continue to strive toward rights and recognition as a distinct nation.
