Guillaume Sayer information


Pierre Guillaume Sayer (October 18, 1799 – August 7, 1868) was a Métis fur trader who challenged the monopoly of the Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) of the fur trade in the Red River region. Ultimately this led to its end.

After leaving the HBC, Sayer moved near the Red River Settlement. He `was arrested and tried in 1849 for independent trading. Although he was convicted, the judge levied no fine or punishment. Effectively the HBC could no longer use the courts to enforce its monopoly in the Red River region. It gave up its ownership of Rupert's Land in 1868, and the monopoly was officially ended in 1870.
