The province of Manitoba will celebrate its sesquicentennial in 2020 and plans to mark the anniversary are well underway.
The Hudson’s Bay Company Archives (HBCA), which is part of the Archives of Manitoba, is getting help from The Hudson’s Bay Company History Foundation for a mass digitization project, one of the first Manitoba 150 projects.
HBCA is digitizing over 1000 reels of microfilm copies of pre-1870 trading post records, making them available to the world online.
