NWMP 1895 - RCMP 1995
The northern frontier was a lawless land in the 1800's when the discovery of gold in the Yukon lured thousands of fortune hunters from around the world. Member of Canada's North West Mounted Police were the first law enforcement pioneers dispatched to keep the peace. Join the pursuit for the Mad Trapper of Rat River who shot and killed one Mountie and wounded another. See how the Mounties, "always get their man". Living in isolated outposts often meant lonely winter patrols by dog team, acting as dentists and doctors when needed and even building their own homes when necessary. Also, see the world famous Musical Ride and other celebrations marking the 100th year of service in the north by the RCMP.
