Lizette Cree, a daughter of the Cree nation, found herself at the heart of a captivating love triangle that would forever etch her name in the annals of Canadian history.

Lizette's life took a dramatic turn when she crossed paths with Antoine Paquette, a charismatic fur trader. Their marriage brought together two distinct worlds – the Indigenous traditions of Lizette's Cree heritage and the European customs of Paquette's French-Canadian background.
