Dalnavert Museum Winnipeg

By admin

Dalnavert Museum is the restored Victorian era home of Hugh John Mcdonald , son of Canada’s first prime minister Sir John A. Mcdonald.  Dalnavert is considered well  to be a most fine example of the Queen Anne Revival style of architecture.  This style – what is now referred to as the “Queen Anne Revival”  era dates to the time around ( circa)  1895.

At the Winnipeg Dalnavert Museum guests can see what it was like for for an affluent family in Winnipeg – in what was considered to be the head ( and certainly the most civilized and major center)  of Winnipeg.

Quest of Human Exploration of the New World Leading to Canada

By admin

At this point a new age indeed had opened up for the modern day explorers.  In the “celestial empire’”  and the streets of Canton and Ranking were loudly stirring in the rustle and great wealth of the silk trade and trades.  A flare with both yellow and scarlet. as in the days of the great explorer Marco Polo.  It  was the time of the reign of the almost dull Ming emperors.  For it was now that a new age had opened .  It would leave at rest neither venerable civilizations nor the primitive wildness of what would become British North America , later Canada.  The men of Europe in 1612 had for over a century been almost rifting the”New World” for its precious metals and the ancient East for its silks and spices.  Yet human nature being what it is in the minds of explorers and rulers , none were all too happy or even satisfied.
