- The Bell of Batoche is a 20-pound (9.1 kg) silver-plated church bell believed to have been seized in 1885 as spoils of war from the Métis community of Batoche (now in Saskatchewan) by soldiers from Ontario, following their victory in the Battle of Batoche over the North-West Rebellion. The bell was kept in Millbrook, Ontario, until 1991, when it was stolen from the Royal Canadian Legion hall. It resurfaced in 2013 in Métis hands. However, evidence suggesting the bell's actual origin was from Frog Lake emerged soon after. Questions about its authenticity as the Bell of Batoche ensued until April 2014 when Le Musée de Saint-Boniface Museum director acknowledged that there was enough evidence to conclude that the "Bell of Batoche" which is in the possession of the museum was actually the Bell of Frog Lake taken from the Frog Lake Mission in 1885.
