If you are referring to the time period around the Red River Rebellion, for the most part, the Metis involved in it were born in what is now Manitoba. The Metis people originated as the children born of Indian women and fathered by Frenchmen involved in the fur trade. Those children born of Indian women and fathered by Englishmen involved in the fur trade were usually referred to as half-breeds. Generally speaking, Metis were Catholics and half-breeds were Anglicans.
Mi'kmaq travelled on foot. Unlike the plains Indians, horses were not used. The tribe are skilled canoeists and used sturdy humpbacked birch bark canoes for both inland lake/river and ocean/coastal water travel. It was not unusual for family groups to be seen miles from water with a canoe being carried portage style by one or two male members of the group.
In the winter the Mi'kmaq excelled at snow travel. They utilized snowshoes and Taba'gan ( toboggan).
