A radio documentary about the Canadian west, including interviews of pioneers and other westerners. The interviewees are: pioneer Henry Walden of Winnipeg, who was a scout for the RCMP; pioneer Mrs. J.G. DeGear of Battleford; homesteader and curator George Sheppard of Saskatoon; homesteader Peter Svarich of Vegreville; displaced Vancouverites Mike and Joe Ohashi of Purple Springs; modern homesteaders Ed and Barbara Dietzen; farmer Guy Harry Big Throat of Standoff; painter Gerald Tailfeathers of Standoff; nurse Jean Cuthand of Winnipeg; Chief Walking Buffalo of Morley; guide Jimmy Simpson of Bow Lakes; naturalist Andy Russell of Waterton Lakes; guide and cameraman Bruno Engler of Banff; guide Edward Fuez of Notre Dame College in Wilcox; and magistrate Isaac Rice of Winnipeg. Walden talks about what it was like to be a scout, how people had respect for the Queen and British law, and attitudes toward Indians. Mrs. DeGear recalls the Frog Lake Massacre in the Northwest Rebellion. George Sheppard talks about the turn of the century land boom and sod houses. Svarich speaks about how people with money had a good start, unlike those without money. Mike and Joe Ohashi, who moved from their home in British Columbia as a result of the federal government's displacement of Japanese Canadians during the Second World War, talk about how they wanted a real house after having to live in a converted chicken coop. The aboriginal interviewees talk about their lifestyle and feelings. Jimmy Simpson talks about Bill Miner and his gang. Andy Russell talks about the construction of the Rogers' Pass.<57mn>
