    It saddens me to know the Mounties are now being demonized by every one

      Yeah, and it’s all because it’s become an American thing to hate cops.

    I knew Mr Henry, as a neighbour. Went to school in Jefferson, with is daughter, Shirley. The Henry farm was set between Whiskey Gap, Kimbel, and Jefferson, south/east of Cardston. All these little towns, so needed by the farmers, are all gone now.

    Very cool documentary.. And plus I'm related to the producer.

      Cool! I was wondering if any producers were still around today. That would be quite the connection to speak to someone who met people who grew up in the 1870's.
