An earlier pic of Bill, I really like this hat.

This remarkable photo got me very excited when I saw it on the front page of the newspaper this morning. It's exciting because it depicts what maybe one of the very earliest drug seizures by Canada Customs. The drug being seized is opium, which was only made illegal by Canada's first drug law, the Opium Act.

The hats are interesting too

G & T, what a great picture. The vests full of ??? are most interesting.

Ed, those hats are sporting some SERIOUS stains, and the wearers look like movie stars. Great stuff!

Vic, are those postcards? Fantastic. Bertha knows how to sit a horse.

I'm not sure if they are postcards...photo grabs that I have made from the net. Yes Bertha Blancett sat a horse a well as ANY person. The rodeo men feared her abilities so much that they separated the men and women's events to keep from having to compete against her.

Those are packets of opium, as are the rectangular packages in the bottom of the kyak. Possibly one of the first ever major drug seizures in Canada, as opium was the first drug outlawed in Canada with the passing of the Opium Act.
