The answer to that question, in principal, is probably YES. But....as he quickly attained the status of a traitor, he did not receive that title. The first premier of Manitoba was Alfred Boyd (http://siamandas.com/time_machine/PAGES/more%20stories/FIRST_LEGISLATURE.htm). Although, in the referenced article, they claim, that while Boyd was the first premier, Adams Archibald performed the role as premier before Boyd.

Was Louis reil a good person?
it depends on your perspective. if you're on the English side, then Louis riel was a pest. if you're on the french side, then Louis riel was a great hero who defended their rights.
Why did Louis riel choose to be a politician?
Louis Reil created the provincial government only to maintain order and to negotiate an agreement by which the territory surrounding the Red River Settlement could enter confederation as the province of Manitoba. Louis Riel also feared if Governor McDougall were allowed to take charge of the area, he would give members of the Canadian Party all the power and ignore the Metis.
