André Beauchemin (November 6, 1824[1] – December 13, 1902[2]) was a Métis politician in Manitoba, representing the community of St. Vital.
[2] He first represented the community of St. Vital on the Red River Council, convened by Métis leader Louis Riel in 1869, then joined the Convention of Forty as a delegate.
When the convention formed Manitoba's provisional government in February 1870, he server as a councillor before being elected to the Legislative Assembly of Assiniboia as the representative for the St. Vital riding.
[1][3] In November 1872, Beauchemin offered to resign his seat in the Manitoba assembly so that Riel could be elected in a by-election.
Alexander Morris, at that time administrator for the province, warned that an arrest warrant for the murder of Thomas Scott would be issued if Riel attempted to contest a by-election.
