Is Canada Independent of Britain, or still a connection? Like Australia ?
I never think about it, I just see Canadians as our Northern Family.
Might need to come down and get us back in Harmony ...
It's a matter of Higher Mind vs lower mind, and some patience, I suppose.
Thanks!
Best Thoughts ...

@@bethbartlett5692 Canada is a sovereign nation, but we are part of the Commonwealth, and still recognize the king as our monarch. I think it's a constitutional monarchy on paper, and a parliamentary democracy in practice.
The best historical storyteller on the planet. The narration coupled with the scenic images is spot on.
Cheers from Okanagan valley British Columbia 🇨🇦
I literally just finished a hike in the back country in the Monashee mountain range near Revelstoke B.C.seen 4 grizzly 💩 on trail and 1 grizzly just off the road, intensely wild and beautiful beyond words.
It is a very special place and area.
The Canadian rockies are awesome!
Its amazing how large canada is.
I am a Texan and growing up here gives me a kind of understanding that maybe other Americans dont grasp.
You can fit Texas inside Canada comfortably, probably 15 times.
As a Texan, in general, the avg American/Canadian don't grasp the size of Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeedom
@@mq9893 lol God bless!
@@Redline6ix To you as well ;-) 🍻

This has to be one of, if not the very best of your videos. The actual historic content is fascinating, the landscape photography beautiful; a grand reminder of what it took to open up a wilderness. Very good - indeed, first class.
Man I opened TH-cam at the perfect time today. Thanks HP!
Thank you HP, the folklore and story telling is always excellent. One of my favourite channels.
Harry Potter?
Great video Sir 👍
Thanks for watching!
Keep it up Hammerson 👏🏻👏🏻
Oh wow, refreshed at the right time. 12 seconds lol
Wonderful video! Thank you 👍🏻😊
Top notch as usual. I can only imagine how scary being in any of these situations would be.
Thanks for saying so! I felt terrible for Charley.
@@HammersonPeters It really makes you wonder about the stories that never got to be told
Being born and raised in Prince George and basically raised in bush the back country holds no fear for me. I actually quite love it. Living in Edmonton now I really miss the mountains and the forests.
Loup Garou is gonna get ya😂😂😂
You are literally my favorite channel to listen to. So interesting. Keep up the great work.
Hey bud, your channel is one of the best, I love how when you talk about something you show pics, videos or maps that show what you’re talking about, hardly anybody does that, keep up the good work Mr. Peters
Thank you Mr.Peters! ✌🏼😊
Your videos are so well done, I pick my time so I can enjoy them. Thanks:
Good tales
College gf gifted me Strange Terrain a long time ago.Loved it still read it from time to time
Rave? Story! I saw my dying uncle the 2 prior mornings before he passed. I would wake up and see him walk through my door. It was like a full body, full color apparition. I described him to his daughter and my favorite Cousin. He is sadly missed. 👍🏼😔👍🏼
Great one, Hammerson 🍻
I'm happy your friend Mateo uploaded on his "Modern Explorer" channel, too
Thanks for posting this. M wife is related to Moberly and its always cool to hear stories including him
Enjoyable, as usual. Clear and pleasant narration and the most beautiful of background pictures. I personally enjoy the stories before the 20th century when the wilderness was the wilderness. The written diaries and personal stories of strange phenomenon, I believe because I don't believe the people lied or made up a fantastic tale. There were and are unexplainable "things" out there and moreso, back then.
Thanks again ‼️
A lot of BC is still Wilderness especially up north. I was born and raised in that country.
These stories were absolutely incredible! 😊
Another excellent and interesting video. All around wonderful and enthralling. Thanku Hammerson!!!!!
awesome
another phenomenal safe by HP. I was so bored, got me some snacks but couldn't find anything good to watch, then you upload : )
I too lost a Fiancé on the shores of Lake St Claire . I thought she just broke up with me but good to know it had to be that dastardly Loup- Garou!
As my favorite comedian Norm would tell you “ I say, ya dirty dog!”
Thanks HP, the work you do doesn’t go unnoticed!
i had to look up white batiste
Combed Cotton Batiste is a semi-sheer, lightweight fabric with a soft face and a slight crispness. This white batiste fabric is popular for Christening gowns, for nightgowns, as an underlining for Wedding gowns, and in *historical reenactment garments such as chemises and underpinnings.*
yikes. 😓
Thank you
This was great! Exceptional backdrops, i especially liked Chilcotin country, ive added it to my list
Thanks...have travelled thru these areas mentioned in British Columbia.. Yes we are always intrigued by the many recorded mysteries taking place in the interior of B.C.
The forest fire.....You just solved a mystery for me! I chase the CPR trains for photos in along Lake Superior. One of my favorite spots on the sub is Firehill and I always wondered why. There is a big hill, and 10 years later putting in rail, a forest fires damage would still be seen. Very cool to know the history of a spot I spend so much time in. Thanks!
Great Episode!!!
Hello from New Brunswick, Canada. My grandfather is from Newfoundland and he told me when he would walk back to his house from his grandmothers, she would make him take a piece of bread in his pocket to protect him from fairies! Those traditions have continued on. There’s no place I’d rather be🇨🇦
Didn't know the history of the Canadian railroad, thanks for the upload. Very interesting.❤️🙏
NEW HAMMERSON VIDEO LLLLLEEEETTTTSSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOO
Great vid as usual. Someday I'm going to buy some of your books, Strange Terrain: The Fairy World in Newfoundland too. Its cool that you mentioned that book. That's been on my book wishlist for awhile
those poor snare people, thats brutal.
Never been this early! 😂
Canada is a beautiful country. Born in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Grew up in beautiful Victoria, BC, and reside in Calgary, Alberta. Still close to the mountains. This is the most scenic country from coast to coast to coast. Yep, 3 coast's.
😇😇😇
I appreciate your reports.
Fascinating report thank you for sharing this with us 👍
✌🏼
I spent time in the Homathko country (Diary of a surveyor). and can affirm that it is some of, if not the most atrocious country, in the world. To the natives of Anahim Lake it was the "Kleena Kleena" or the River of no return. It is called the Homathko only on the Coast side of the mountains. Even the omnipresent Indian Grease trails did not penetrate that area but went up Knights Inlet, up Mussel Creek and over a very high elevation pass into Anahim Lake. CPR took a very long and hard look at it because of Ripple Rock, by Quadra Island, and the tantalizing prospect of a land link with Vancouver Island. The only place that comes close is the upper Stave and Pitt Rivers, the area of "Slumach's Gold". Of note is that far more people have died looking for Slumachs gold that the Lost Dutchmen's mine in the Superstition Mountains of AZ.
Learned something new from Jump, 2nd largest country! Damn Ham 👊🏼👊🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Amazing channel! I wonder if there are any legends involving the Orange Order?
What an adventure into the unkown that very few men would get to have.
The one story of the man having his horse poke his nose in his face is not a mystery.. I e had three strokes in my life. And it wasn't abnormal for me to pass out with no warning, and then not have a clue as to where I was or what had happened. And my memory would be forever changed.
It is true lost people walk in circles. Most people have a dominant leg that is often longer and stronger, causing you to slowly circle if not paying attention
24:00 what is the name of the song playing in the backround? It is an absolutely beautiful melody :)
I composed it myself. I'm glad you like it!
I’ve been a captive of BC Ferries.
There are different species of little people. I've seen 3. One visited me quite often. The other 2 species were skittish and disappeared as soon as they saw I noticed their presence. As crazy as I sound I know they exist.
Very interesting! A lot of these things from the past are still happening now in missing 411 cases. As always another great upload. I really hope to hear some Blackfoot tribe and writing on Stone stories soon!
Many 411 cases have been solved years after when the body was found
They built a railroad across Canada in 4 years.
Metrolinx can't build an LRT across Toronto in 12.
As a hairy dude who has to do regular heavy manscaping from my collar bones to my ankles to survive summer, I suspect that were I to walk out of the bush 200 years ago wearing a coat of dirt and a strip of rabbit fur any Indian would saw me would likely evoke the latent wild man gene to explain what they were seeing.
Particularly when you consider how Indians tend to be blessed with relatively little body hair.
Just a thought.
🤣 ty that painted a vivid picture🦧
your story reminds of seeing a husky as a pet in Thailand 🥵😭😭😭
Gaffer tape on the old crease always works; you might leave a dent in ceiling with your head,but.....😁
After watching all your vids for the past 2 years or so you've now made Canada feel not as big to me anymore 😅 the mention of the same geographic regions and the connections of the regionals beliefs in all these myths and stories I guess.
Babe, wake up & listen to the history about the State’s evil top hat with me…. I listened to it days ago… it’s fascinating & amazing. Hammerson’s an OK writer too
Wish you would turn up the volume on the music like in your older videos. Love hearing those tracks but now I can't
I second that
good Lord I don't! folks with hearing damage have a hard time sorting speech from background sounds. ✌️ ❤️🩹
Some of us older adults, 67 here, have or may have a difficulty with that. I find the pictures and background beautiful and enjoy the narration, so the music or lack of is secondary or thirdly 😅
I don't agree. Listen to your own music in the background. Sometimes the music drowns out the voice.
Literally the the only person who has ever requested this... loud music over it ruins it. It makes 99% of people turn it off.
Canada’s greatest claim to fame is the Terrance and Phillip show
you spelled Hammerson Peters wrong 😆
And Brian Boitano..
@@terenceflanagan1225 who?
Newfoundland aint part of The Maritimes, b'ys.
You should go back to using your standard music background
Thanks again for an excellent video,Hammerson.Have to say it but your narration is primo….cheers from B.C.
