Scenes shown are motorboating amid the Thirty Thousand Islands that dot Georgian Bay; fishing in the long reaches of the celebrated French River; the lovely scenery on the north shore of Lake Superior, which you touch as you travel toward Winnipeg; the biggest grain elevators in the world situated at Fort William in Ontario. Judging from the size and number of these granaries which dot the landscape, one would think that the entire wheat crop of the world could easily be stored away in this one particular spot. One sees at Port Arthur, Ontario, a genuine bowling green, an outdoor bowling alley, the like of which have passed away many years ago. The gate of old Fort Garry, which was all there was of Winnipeg in 1821, is still to be seen, as well as the first locomotive in western Canada, which arrived by river steamer in 1877 and which is now enshrined in the middle of a grassy lawn like any other monument erected to commemorate triumphant deeds. A number of amusing incidents enliven this little tour. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
