Our southern neighbours in the United States, as we all know, have 'boxed and sold' their frontier history to the limit. Canadians are somewhat more reserved about our wild frontier days. The famous Canadian fur trade, exploration, opening of the west, the railroad, and gold rush activity form a large part of our heritage. Our history is every bit as fascinating as the Hollywood productions, as it's all here right next door. While much has been written about the history of Flin Flon, Amisk Lake was making Canadian history 150 years before Flin Flon was even discovered. So join me for an historical tour of Amisk (Cree for Beaver) Lake - truly history on our doorstep.
