- The Battle of Loon Lake, also known as the Battle of Steele Narrows, concluded the North-West Rebellion on June 3, 1885, and was the last battle fought on Canadian soil. It was fought in what was then the District of Saskatchewan of the North-West Territories, at what is now known as Steele Narrows at Makwa Lake, in Saskatchewan's Steele Narrows Provincial Park. Steele Narrows is a channel that separates Sanderson Bay from Makwa Lake. Led by Major Sam Steele, a force of North-West Mounted Police, Alberta Mounted Rifles and Steele's Scouts (a body of mounted militia raised by Steele himself) caught up with and dispersed a band of Plains Cree warriors and their white and Métis hostages. Cree scouts made a determined stand with what was left of their ammunition, but the body of the Cree column, realizing the hopelessness of their situation, released their prisoners and fled. The Cree casualties were four dead and dozens wounded. Wandering Spirit, the war chief leading the Cree military campaign, surrendered to authorities at Fort Pitt. Big Bear, the aging peacetime chief of this band of Cree, eluded capture until July 2. (en)
- La bataille de Loon Lake marque la fin effective de la Rébellion du Nord-Ouest, le 3 juin 1885. Ce fut également la dernière bataille en date à être livrée sur le territoire canadien. Menés par le major Sam Steele, un contingent mixte de la Police montée, de fusiliers albertains et d'une milice recrutée par Steele lui-même mit en déroute les guerriers cris, libérant leurs otages blancs et Métis. Les éclaireurs cris combattirent jusqu'au bout de leurs faibles munitions, mais l'essentiel du groupe, voyant le caractère désespéré de la situation, relâcha ses prisonniers et prit la fuite. Wandering Spirit, chef militaire des Cris rebelles, se rendit aux autorités de Fort Pitt. Big Bear, le chef vieillissant de la tribu, parvint à échapper à ses poursuivants jusqu'au 2 juillet. La bataille de Loon Lake est marquée par des panneaux explicatifs placés par le gouvernement de la Saskatchewan et une plaque apposée par l'Office canadien des monuments historiques. L'endroit où se tint la bataille s'appelle désormais "Steele Narrows".
