The battles and wars of which the Métis people were part of hold a place of relevance in our nation’s history. The Métis Crossing Veteran’s Monument acknowledges and memorializes the sacrifices of the Métis men and women in a unique and lasting way. It was completed in 2021 by Reimagine architectural firm and unveiled on 21 August 2021.

The monument embodies the texture and movement of a traditional Métis sash. The sash is a literal embodiment of the blending of cultures, with its customary red colour material symbolizing the blood shed by the Métis as they fought for their rights throughout the centuries. The sash is inscribed with names of the fallen. Benches integrate within the form of the loop, a symbolic continuity between the past, present, and future.

Glass didactic panels face the walkway that leads to the monument. Stories and illustrations on the didactic panels describe the battles and wars that Métis people were involved in, beginning with the Battle of Seven Oaks through to the current Peacekeeping times. The imagery of which, depending on the time of day, silhouette against the grass or pathway. As more information comes over time the glass panels on the monument and didactic panels can be recycled and reprinted in order to update information such as the inclusion of more Métis Veteran names.
