Recent local controversy over a statue of Louis Riel on the grounds of the Manitoba legislature is a reminder of the ways the present ransacks history in search of a useable past. A statue of a naked, tortured-looking Riel has been hauled away, to be replaced with one that will, in all likelihood, make him look just as boring and constipated as the other statues that dot the grounds. The removal comes at the prompting of local Metis leaders who believe the statue is undignified - they point out, for example, that no other political leader is portrayed in the buff.
