In the year 1788, what was to become Canada was anything but a quiet wilderness. A corporate war over a century in the making was brewing between the fur trading companies of the day. That fall, a young Hudson’s Bay Company employee from the midlands of England would set foot in North America for the first time. He was destined to become one of the most accomplished surveyors and explorers in Canadian History.
