Statement of Reconciliation

In the spirit of respect, reciprocity and truth, we honour and acknowledge Moh’kinsstis, and the traditional Treaty 7 territory and oral practices of the Blackfoot confederacy: Siksika, Kainai, Piikani, as well as the Îyâxe Nakoda and Tsuut’ina nations. We acknowledge that this territory is home to the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region 3 within the historical Northwest Métis homeland. Finally, we acknowledge all Nations – Indigenous and non – who live, work and play on this land, and who honour and celebrate this territory.

Welcome

We are enthusiasts and reenactors interested in the "Victorian" history of Alberta and Western Canada, that is between 1880 and 1914*.

Here you will find articles of interest, photos of reenactor events, costuming tips, and discussions of interest to fans of the early days of the settlement of Alberta and Western Canada.

We will also have items of interest from the wider "Victorian" world because our history takes place in the global context of the British Empire and the Dominion of Canada.

*Queen Victoria died in 1901 so the period between 1901 and 1914 is technically Edwardian but most people during that time were still "Victorians"
