Book Reports / Louis Riel: Hero OR Villain? (a letter from different point of views) [3]

My teacher is making us write a letter from the point of view of a Metis, a French Canadien, or an English Canadian. I know there is lots of reasons that he could be either a hero, or a villain.

I'm just not too sure about how each of the groups (above) viewed Louis Riel. So i have a couple of reasons of why he is either a hero or villain.

HERO
*He was named the Secretary for the National Committee of the Red River Metis.
*People came to him for advice instead of the President.
*He was the reason Canada has Manitoba and Saskatchewan
*He stood up for Native rights and defended the Metis
*He wrote up the List of Rights
*Led the Northwest Rebellion of 1885, which showcased the capabilities of the Canadian Pacific Railway

VILLAIN
* He executed Thomas Scott, an Orange Lodge member
* Challenged the government and wrongly viewed their ideas
* Led rebellions against the government
*Ran away to the US after he killed Scott
*He betrayed his country when his rebellion failed

If you can tell me which point of view (Metis, a French Canadien, or an English Canadian.) would be the easiest, and why, that would be great! :)
