I need a bunch of years to read through all the microfilmed and manuscript records of the legendary Hudson’s Bay Company. I can view some at places I regularly research and need to go to Winnipeg to access the bulk of the records. Now we have some great news.
” The province of Manitoba will celebrate its sesquicentennial in 2020 and plans to mark the anniversary are well underway. “
“HBCA is digitizing over 1000 reels of microfilm copies of pre-1870 trading post records, making them available to the world online. ”
