This is the first time I hear about this guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Riel

"Marrsi" sounds like "Merci" in French, meaning "Thank you"

I know nothing about any of this, but DDG turned this up in the first search result:

“Marrsî” means “Thank you” in Northern Michif, the language of the Northern Métis peoples of Canada.
