Battle of Fish Creek
The Battle of Fish Creek, fought April 24, 1885 at Fish Creek, Saskatchewan, was a major MĂ©tis victory over the Dominion forces attempting to quell Louis Riel's North-West Rebellion. The reversal, though not decisive enough to ultimately alter the outcome of the war, halted Major General Frederick Middleton's advance on Batoche, where the MĂ©tis would later make their final stand.
