TABLED DOCUMENT 30-17(4): ARTICLE ON THE MAD TRAPPER OF RAT RIVER, ALBERT JOHNSON

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am very honoured to be tabling the following document today. It is an insert from the Inuvik Drum dated Thursday, February 21, 2013. I will be tabling the front page as well as page 3. The front page says, “Father in Posse, Son Recalls How Dad Involved in Mad Trapper’s Death 81 Years Ago.” The other page is, “Mad Trapper Chase Recalled – Inuvik Man is Son of RCMP Officer who Took Down Albert Johnson.”

This document is part of NWT history. It tells a story of Winston John Moses talking about Constable John Moses, who fired the fatal shot of the Mad Trapper of Rat River. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
