Instead , the wolfers arrived in the Battle Creek valley where the trading posts operated by Abel Farwell and Moses Solomon were located , opposite a camp of some 200 to 300 Nakota people . Tensions were already somewhat elevated , alcohol had been flowing freely on all sides , and a misunderstanding over a missing horse led to a mixed group of wolfers , whisky traders , and Métis freighters opening fire on the Nakota camp , resulting in 23 confirmed Nakota deaths and the death of one wolfer , Ed LeGrace . Both trading posts were subsequently abandoned and burned . This incident outraged Canadians , who wanted Americans to respect their sovereignty ; Western Canada was threatened .

Macdonald to speed up the growth and deployment of the North - West Mounted Police . Fort Walsh was then established in the Cypress Hills region .
