1946 Haliburton Echo Archives plus Fortress Louisbourg


Listen Later

This week, Kate went down another rabbit hole reading a Haliburton Echo newspaper archive from 1946 and came up with 2 stories - one on a committee formed to figure a way for the community to increase tourism in the post WW2 era, and another on Haliburton's Red Cross Outpost Hospital - the building that Canoe FM now occupies.Plus Paul tells the tale of the rise and fall of France's Fort Louisbourg, and the strategic place it held in the see-saw battle between France and Britain for predominance in North America.

Kate Butler is the Director of the Haliburton Highlands Museum. Paul Vorvis is the host of the Your Haliburton Morning Show 7 - 9 a.m. Fridays on Canoe FM 100.9 and streaming on your devices.
