This statement is incorrect. The Métis were indeed concerned about facing similar problems in St. Laurent as they had experienced in Manitoba. When the Métis migrated from Manitoba to St. Laurent, they faced various challenges, including issues related to land ownership, discrimination, and the loss of their traditional way of life. They were worried about potential conflicts with settlers, encroachment on their land, and difficulties in maintaining their cultural identity and rights. These concerns led to the Métis organizing and advocating for their rights and land claims in St. Laurent just as they had done in Manitoba.
