National Film Board of Canada - Life in Early Canada 07 - Homesteading on the Prairies

A short storyboard animation from the National Film Board, about living in early Canada. Seventh of seven.

[@aaronvallejo8220]

Fascinating story of our ancestors! My grandmother, born near Waterloo, Ontario remembers wolves looking into their sod house through the cracks in the roof.

[@rrastogi20]

This so boring.

[@aaronvallejo8220]

Imagine showing up with 3 kids a wife and a few animals if your lucky? I noticed that the homesteader plowed the field first...top priority was/is/will be food then their sod house. I loved how regional neighbours helped and help each other on the prairies.
