From about 1960 until it was dismantled in 1964 I was an active member of the No. 20 Squadron of the RCAF Ground Observer Corps (the eyes and ears of the Royal Canadian Air Force). Yesterday I found my pin in Mike's jewelry box. I haven't yet found the books of silhouettes which I memorized...
This blog is a compendium of my recollections and thoughts on Canada's North. My father Mike (Paul Kelpin) managed stores for the Hudson's Bay Company in the Western Arctic, trading goods for fur in northern communities from 1949 to 1967. These are my memories of growing up in Canada's last frontier, with occasional diversions into northern social issues, environment, climate, economics, history, nature, etc. Email me at "brault at netidea.com"
