Over its existence, the Council of Assiniboia transformed numerous times in an effort to bring law and order to a young colonial settlement that was rife with tension and hardship.

En l'absence d'élections, ce conseil n'était cependant pas particulièrement représentatif des intérêts des populations, la plupart des membres étant surtout des agents ou négociants de la Compagnie. Le Conseil disparut avec l'intégration d'une partie de la Terre de Rupert dans la confédération canadienne sous le nom de Manitoba. * Portail des Métis * Portail du Manitoba * Portail de la Saskatchewan (fr)
