Mark F Posted September 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 (edited) well done..... beautiful rendition of one of the great Canadian songs. ust Watched a video made by the crew of the vessel doing the search /exploration and they had that song playing from start to finish. It's very eery looking at the wheel of the ship. Edited September 13, 2016 by Mark F Mark H. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostyWinnipeg Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 Now they just need to find his body - supposedly in a well done grave - and thats the end of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 I always find discoveries like this to be very interesting. The Titanic exhibit in Vegas was amazing.. it would be awesome to do the same for this. Maybe change the human rights museum to more of a Canadian history museum and have this as an attraction. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree. I'll go to the Manitoba Museum rather than the Museum of Human Rights The Titanic exhibit in Wpg was one of the best displays I've ever seen bigg jay and wbbfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a massive chunk of the ship in one room, I'd say about 15 feet high and 30 feet long... it's super eerie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glass windows still intact and installed. One of the scientists said it would probably float, if raised and pumped out.

It doesn't prove that nobody came that way, just that some people came a different way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark H. Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 If they came that way, it was later when there was actual plant life. The Inuit, for example, were the last group to migrate, which is why they could survive in the North I don't think they should discount the idea that human life evolved on this continent. However, you can't ignore the similarities to Asian DNA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny how long it was accepted that human life began in Africa and people spread from there - no other possibilities considered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
