This Council was created by the Hudson Bay Company to govern the territory following its merger with the North West Company , and the death of Lord Selkirk . Both the Protestant and Roman Catholic clergy were represented on the council, as were both Francophone , Métis , and Anglophone Country Born s. However, it was not a form of Responsible Government , since there were no Elections , and the council was primarily composed of factors and traders of the Hudson's Bay Company. |
