Film of border crossings at Gretna Manitoba in 1911 transcribed by "Jim Bundy" E-mail. As it happens, almost all of the people were arriving from various midwestern US states, and on their way to several places in Saskatchewan. A very few actually stayed in Manitoba. A few were arriving directly from Europe. Almost all were travelling by rail.
