Sunday night, and an almost three hour Canadian Mysteries video, courtesy of Hammerson Peters. The dogs are in, the kids are in bed, me and the wife with a bowl of peanut brittle sitting on the couch. Let the show begin!
I really love these Canadian stories. I love the accompanying pictures - story time is great with this channel! And it's cold and raining outside... perfect for resting up (still healing my neck that's recovering from severe injury causing severe disability - I'm finally getting better, after several years!) and listening to the fascinating stories of my ancestors...
@@lightmetamorphosis Unfortunately no, most of the time it's boiling hot and I hate it too! The weather seems to have it in for me - the more I wish for some cool weather, bit of rain and a few clouds, the hotter it gets! It's like some mad fire spirit is trying to torment me!
I moved to Regina, SK in June of 2022. I really like living here. I can afford my rent and it doesn't rain endlessly, like it sometimes seems to do on the south coast of BC.
This is absolutely outstanding and priceless! Thank you *so much* for ensuring these aren’t forgotten, or lost to time. Much knowledge & lessons in metaphorical wisdom, and many *probable* unexplainable historic events, to be learned. 🇺🇸❤️🔥🇨🇦
Always glad to be here, along with everyone else. I usually wait until evening or night and lay back setting the phone up so I can watch the beautiful backdrop while listening 💕💞
After becoming familiar with THIS great, very unique and understated channel, bringing Canada's rich, romantic, and mysterious history back to life- I'm not surprised by much of anything.
lol I just looked at the time stamp on it and realized oh my goodness this is like two and a half hours long! I'm going to have to go for a walk with my earbuds 😊❤️
Thank you so much for mentioning writing on Stone provincial park. This is now my home and after traveling across Canada there is nowhere else like it.
Currently at writing on Stone as I type this. Feel blessed to be listening to one of my all time favorite channels while being on location. I was inside the NWMP post. There's nothing else like it. Every Canadian must see this place once.
These stories bring a sense of Peace an adventure, That seems to be lacking in our modern world. Of over information, and deceit. Honor is a gift. A man gives him self. Thanks, Hammerson, for another great upload.
My North West Montana drawl has a French Canadian twang to it. lol Hitch hiked thru Browning, Mt. twice, two times to many, not bad ,,, kinda fun, every car had a dent in it, a ritual I think. Ended up working on some apartments in Browning. At dusk every night the drums and chanting would kick in with the occasional coyote cries. Made your skin crawl I was 18 and it was 1977 when hitching.
Seeing that photo from North Montana gave me shivers. I see the sweet grass hills from the other side everyday. Never seen it from the Montana perspective.
1:11:00 There was a big clash between Mohawks and Cree. Place is called Ghost river, 100 miles up the Albany River, on the James Bay Coast in Ontario. There are Graves there from the battle. People from Kashechewan, ON go there by canoe every summer. Part of a summer program for the kids, paddle up the river to the site where the battle happened. The Crees were defeated in the battle. Battle of Ghost River. Dont know if it was named ghost river after the battle or before. Story is well known, passed down from word of mouth. Took place in the late 1700s.
There are still canons here in Moose Factory on display. We have houses built by the HBC workers, still standing and open to visit during tourist season. The old forge is a pretty cool place, there is a huge anchor there too from ships that used to dock here. First English speaking settlement in present day Ontario. Moose Fort - Fort St-Lous - Moose Factory (renamed twice). French took over Moose Fort, renamed the Island Fort St-Louis and when the English fought for the forts back renamed the island Moose Factory, Factory instead of Fort. Moose because its on the Moose River lol.
Post Riel Rebellion, the natives of Saskatchewan & Manitoba were forbidden ownership of any kind of firearm. As if a special gift that fall, there was an abundance of rabbits. Many families took them by bow & snare, hence fending off certain starvation. I know of one metis family, the father kept a blunderbuss hidden somehow near the fireplace. In fear that settlers would take hateful revenge upon them. Its secret existence was not exposed to others until about four decades later.
Old Wives Lake continues to inflict itself upon modern day man. The deer hunting there, particularly on its southern shore, is very good. However on dry years its alkaline mud flats let lose salt in the prairie winds. You can see this swirling greyish white cloud for many miles on a clear day. There are also many abandoned homesteads near it shores. Seems to be about 1970s or thereabouts.
Thank you so much for this video! This was awesome ! My mom's from fort McLeod and it was great to learn the history of a town I visited sonmuch and loved
Bro the only reason I can be happy here is knowing my ancestors called the Red River Valley home. If you don't have thousands of years of ancestral connections here, there is absolutely zero reason to be here.
ABSOLUTELY DEFINITELY GREAT WAY TO SNUGGLE IN FOR THE NIGHT AND REALLY RELAX WITH EXCELLENT STORY TELLING FANTASTIC NARRATOR GLAD I STUMBLED ON THIS NOT YELLING ALMOST COMPLETELY BLIND CAPS HELP STAY SAFE EVERYONE AND HAVE A GREAT NIGHT
Found you channel earlier this month and am so excited to grow my knowledge of Canadian myth. Despite being Canadian im sadly lacking in the education of Canada's myths and legends.
I would love to visit all of the places that you distinguish unfortunately due to some indiscretions during my youth I don’t believe I can travel to Canada 😢
Sadly, I'm in the same situation 😔, It's been such a long time since I was young, and foolish....😢 ~ you'd think that they'd let me visit by now, but😮 Nope!!
Ive learned in my long mysterious life that many ,many things are possible. I have witnessed many of them that seemed impossible but were absolutely true and witnessed by others. The Lord works in mysterious ways. Lvya all much
Literally read the title as Canadian pirates... then got really confused as it was focussing in on the parries... I thought, hmm land pirates? Then my brain started working.
I am First Nations Nehiyawak from Treaty 6. There are things here that settlers/colonists could never understand and defies their science. Go to the woods and be careful there are things that have no names. Spirits flow in the woods freely where we still have ancient ceremonial grounds,. Nice that we get to hear a story about the shaking tent..Hiy Hiy
1:45:09 ("The story about the Native Cree man that had developed an affinity for alcohol and human flesh." Suffering from more than 1 Psychiatric diagnosis and overt Personality Disorder) 🔹The story falls short of how his remains were disposed. ("One can only assume his body was returned to his People and subsequently followed their protocol to prevent further concern.") 🔹It leaves the listener without a certain closure. 🔹 Conclusion: Canadians are consistently known to follow the most ethical and responsible decisions, demonstrating respect to ther Native Peoples, thus ("His remains were turned over to his Tribal People, and they followed up with their Spiritual Protocol.") 🔹🔹🔹
Living in Alberta for 30 years +. The people that say only rockey mountains ( please note the misspelling) should go back too their couch and not bother coming over 😆. Provincial parks are regulating the amount of people allowed in…. !!!
Just a quick pronunciation tip for the Blackfoot tribes: Siksika has the accent on the first syllable, Kainai has accent on the first syllable, pronounced kye nye (rhymes with eye) and Peigan has accent on the Second syllable, pronounced pay gan. :)
I don't think that's correct, although that's the way a lot of people pronounce the names in Calgary. If you want to pronounce them the native way, 'Siksika' is seeg-seeg-KAH (emphasis on the last syllable), 'Kainai' is gaa-EE-nah (emphasis on the middle syllable), and 'Piikani' (Piegan is an Anglicization) is pee-KAN-nee (emphasis in the middle).
@@HammersonPeters I worked with the Peigan and Kainai when I lived at Fort McLeod, and with Siksika, Peigan and Kainai at Head-Smashed-In, that was their pronunciations. The Piikani pronunciation is basically correct.. but there is both an Old Blackfoot and a New Blackfoot with changes in glottal stops and vocalization.

Whoohoo, Sunday afternoon and a new Hammerson video drops. Awesome way to spend a lazy Sunday

Thanku Hammerson!!!!! U have no idea how much i appreciate ur work and the hours u put into it.

I like the treasure hunter channel you suggested although the AI voice gets a little old. Thank you for using your voice for us here!
Sick! I can’t wait to watch. Looking forward to catching it later tonight when it’s a little creepier outside
Sweet, just what I needed today. Thanks Hammerson.

Thanks for the upload my friend. Great channel!!!
From start to finish, up and down and in and out, I thoroughly enjoy your work. 🙂
Toronto is the Canadian version of NYC for the sun hasn't risen for the day or set for the night until it happens in their city.
Toronto was called York before, so yes very much new York is the new Toronto , per say
First time listener. Very impressed. Thanks for the upload
3 hours 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉. Thank you. Best work ever
Seeing that photo from North Montana gave me shivers. I see the sweet grass hills from the other side everyday. Never seen it from the Montana perspective.

Wow. Looks like I have to walk the dog for almost three hours tonight.

Thanks Son of Hammer! I love these stories and the pictures you put with them. Don't anyone call me for the next three hours...

Gather 'round, kids. It's storytime.
My uncle used to be a Baptist Pastor in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. Stayed there for a week. Very cool place.
Hammerson, my brother, you just made my day
So much pain and suffering caused by greed and ignorance. Not much has changed in this world.
The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil.
Yayyyyyyy Hammerson!
thanks
Ohhh this should be good. And as a rural Canadian prairie dweller... I hope to be even more scared of going outside at night... haha
Stellar reports ,thank you , for all of them

love the graphics and as usua,l your storytelling. These vids are my go-to when I can't take the world anymore - super good medicine.
I've been waiting for another long video from Hammerson. Thanks brother!

a true master of story-telling like no other simply put noone dares go where this author goes sadly the others of missing 411 lore resist the truth
The real mystery of Canadian prairies is how one can live in Winnipeg…
Bro the only reason I can be happy here is knowing my ancestors called the Red River Valley home. If you don't have thousands of years of ancestral connections here, there is absolutely zero reason to be here.
This is fascinating! Thankyou for sharing. I grew up in Meadow Lake Sask.
I like when you show the pictures, so I can get a better understanding about the area and it's people 💯🙏
Another cool stories time with perhaps the best storyteller there is….thanks Hammerson.Cheers from the B.C. Coast.

Great stories & history. Medicine hat was interesting.
The stories are interesting but so much violence! Battles, killing, sacrificing. Very bloodthirsty.

The story related by Sub Inspector Denny from the moon-lit night of the Summer of 1879 makes one's hair stand on end.

It’s actually called head smashed in buffalo jump not stone smashed in buffalo jump
Good catch! Another interesting (though not particularly mysterious) story behind that name.
lived in the prairies all my life, seen ufos, shapeshifters, lights, spirits, and i’m only 19 lol it’s fucked out here.

Demons are demons regardless of where in the world or when in history they did their works .
Do you have the sources?
Anthropologists should have consulted some exorcists.
I literally made it 2 seconds into the video and there's a mistake. Toronto doesn't know where Thunder Bay is ...
Isn’t it pronounced sew-toe?
Sinew is pronounced, " see-nu"
@@Bigweiner1 Saulteaux is the word I meant.
Sol-tow I always pronounced saulteaux in French myself ,
Yes, I think that’s the French pronunciation, and maybe the most accurate one. I’ve heard/read SOO-toh, SOW-toh, and SALT-toh.
