Forts and furs on the Saskatchewan in 1755 trade routes
Anthony Henday observed the fur trade along the Saskatchewan as two forts competed upriver. Indians traded prime winter furs for liquor, while French traders stocked fewer second rank skins. The piece also notes a CBC article by Heather Robertson and quips about Canada Post leadership and deficits.
