Marking the passing of the Queen, we remember the time she and Prince Philip stopped on their Canadian tour in Sault Ste Marie!
Despite the wrongdoings of the crown, the visit of the Queen and Prince Phillip was a significant event for Sault Ste Marie, for a prominent figure to visit our small northern city. It was important to many people around town. The intentions of this episode are to share with you the direct history of Sault Ste Marie and historical events in this area.
With that said, I will take you through hour by hour what happened that day they visited Sault Ste. Marie. and don't worry they were only here a few hours.
