Haliburton village has the iconic late 1800's Reid House, but who were the Reid family? Plus, John Anderson - the last escaped slave that the US tried to extradite back from Canada.
This week, Kate talks about the Reid family who built Haliburton village's iconic Reid House in the late 1800's that you can still visit at the Haliburton Highlands Museum. But who were the Reid family, and did they stay in Haliburton? Plus, Paul talks about John Anderson - a slave who killed a man while escaping from the US to Canada, and the legal attempts to try and extradite him back to the US. And the impact of the case on the relationship between Britain and the almost-independent-country of Canada.
