  • ALBERTA in a Snapshot May & June 2017
    "Spring is God's way of saying, 'One more time!' ~~Robert Orben ." May & June 2017 ALBERTA in a Snapshot It was September 1, 1905 when the Government of Canada adopted the Saskatchewan Act and the Alberta Act and 2 new provinces joined the Canadian Confederation. In the late 18th century Alberta was occupied by Aboriginal peoples. The Hudson’s Bay Company and the North West Company began their expansion into the west to trade weapons and metal tools for furs with the various Aboriginal groups. Anthony Henday, an employee of the Hudson’s Bay Company, was the first known European to reach present day Alberta. Anthony Henday was followed by Peter Pond, an employee of the North West Company, who established the first fur trading post in the area. In 1788 Fort Chipewyan was founded. It was from here in 1789 that Alexander Mackenzie began his historic trip down the Mackenzie River and up the Peace River, to travel through the Rocky Mountains to eventually reach the Pacific Ocean in 1793. The Hudson’s Bay Company sent Peter Fidler and David Thompson to explore and map the Athabasca and North Saskatchewan Rivers from the 1790s to the early 1800s. The 2 competing Companies each built forts throughout the northern and central areas until 1821 when they merged operations. There was very little exploration of the southern half of the area during this time by either of these companies. It was the Americans who began penetrating into the southern part of the territory, but it was not weapons and metal tools that were used for trade, but rather a crude form of whiskey.
