Other than the major flaw of killing one person, Louis Riel did some really great work. His work set the stage for the Manitoba Act which is how Manitoba became a Canadian Province. They kept things surprisingly non-violent, again, other than Tom Scott.

It makes perfect sense for him to be the "honorary first Premier" some of our current premiers have killed people, DUI Hank Hill of SK for example.
