This weekend Manitoba Living History worked at Grant’s Old Mill in celebration of Cuthbert Grant, who in addition to being a powerful early Canadian and Metis leader, also built the mill in 1829, the very first mill in western Canada.
We got dressed up and did our thing and were rewarded with some great news footage that aired on CBC’s The National, a country-wide news show. The children turning the hand mill belong to me, and I make a quick appearance teaching a group of children around the table.
CBC The National: Metis Leader Cuthbert Grant
(You have to wait for the commercial before the actual news report plays.)
