General note:

Described by the RECON project.
The Red River cart has become a powerful symbol of the Métis Nation. This Métis invention revolutionized the way goods were transported before the advent of railways. The cart was buoyant and could be floated across streams, yet it was strong enough to carry loads as heavy as 450 kilograms.
