The image showcases a train of carts, laden with an astonishing $75,000 worth of furs, making its way through the bustling streets of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The scene is filled with an air of excitement as people gather to witness this remarkable display of commerce and trade. A dirt road stretches out before them, bearing witness to the constant movement and activity that defines this vibrant city. In this snapshot from the past, we catch a glimpse into the world of fur trading during that era. French fur traders can be seen alongside their indigenous counterparts who played an integral role in this thriving industry.

It serves as a testament to their dominance and success in shaping Canadian history.
