Northwestern Ontario residents are being given the opportunity to get a glimpse into history of the one of the oldest companies in the world.
Winnipeg is home to the archives of the Hudson's Bay Company, and archivist James Gordon is travelling the region to explain how they can be accessed.
"We have records that have been micro-filmed," says Gordon. "We have over 4,600 reels and we'll send these out free of charge to any library, archives or research centre that requests them."
Gordon says the material dates back to the company's incorporation in 1670.
