Bob's family lived on the ranch since 1883, but Bob was born in the Medicine Hat hospital as it was the nearest hospital. Bob's father was also born in Medicine Hat, while his mother was born in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia but came to Medicine Hat as a bay. Bob's spouse was born in Brooks, Alberta.\n\nBob lived in Ottawa for 10 years from 1984 to 1993 before returning to the ranch. Bob's achieved a high school education. He has spent most of his life raising livestock: cattle, horses, buffalo. He spent 10 years as a member of parliament.\n\nBob's considers his ancestry to be Canadian as both sides of his family had been in Canada for 2 generations. Prior to that, his father's side came from Ireland during the Potato famine and settled in Ontario before one branch of the family came and settled near Medicine Hat. Bob's mother's side went to Nova Scotia and came west just after the turn of the century when her father came west with the railway.","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Synopsis"]}}],"target":"https://ualberta.aviaryplatform.com/collections/1776/collection_resources/58574/file/132624#t=0.0,288.0"},{"id":"https://ualberta.aviaryplatform.com/collections/1776/collection_resources/58574/file/132624/index/52454/annotation/3","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"birthplaces","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Subjects"]}},{"type":"TextualBody","value":"education","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Subjects"]}},{"type":"TextualBody","value":"heredity","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Subjects"]}}],"target":"https://ualberta.aviaryplatform.com/collections/1776/collection_resources/58574/file/132624#t=0.0,288.0"},{"id":"https://ualberta.aviaryplatform.com/collections/1776/collection_resources/58574/file/132624/index/52454/annotation/4","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Education and time in Medicine Hat","format":"text/plain","label":{"en":["Title"]}}],"target":"https://ualberta.aviaryplatform.com/collections/1776/collection_resources/58574/file/132624#t=288.0,373.0"},{"id":"https://ualberta.aviaryplatform.com/collections/1776/collection_resources/58574/file/132624/index/52454/annotation/5","type":"Annotation","motivation":"supplementing","body":[{"type":"TextualBody","value":"Bob lived on the ranch until he was 6 years old before coming to Medicine Hat to live with his grandmother.

They might also get steak and eggs for breakfast if it was a busy time of year and they were unlikely to get back in time for lunch. As a child, fruit meant Saskatoon berries or rhubarb. Everyone would gather berries, which Bob's mother would can and preserve. If an animal was butchered, a lot of the meat was cut up and canned to preserve it over the winter. There was not the variety of fruit experienced today. A lot of country people kept vegetables in a root house, vegetables like carrots, turnips, or beets. A lot of places were self-sufficient since there was a good chance a home might get snowed in. There was a fair bit of home baked bread.\n\nThey would milk a cow every day so milk was fresh and butter would be made with the cream. Anything that needed to be kept cool would be put in a pail and dropped down a well where it was cooler. Eggs would be placed in waterglass (sodium silicate) and preserved that way. The compound was purchased in powdered form and mixed with water before coating the eggs. There was fresh food from gardens and many people would raise chickens. There was also game meat. Bob's father would hunt deer, antelope, or birds.\n\nIn Medicine Hat, milk was delivered by a team and wagon. There was an ice box with a big block of ice inside. Bread was delivered.

Flour and sugar would come in 100 pound sacks. Most of what they had was homemade bread puddings and things like that. Every meal was made from scratch.\n\nBob remembers that women would always wash their clothes on Mondays (though he had no idea why) and they would have a certain day when they would bake. They would make bread, buns, cakes, and pies. Medicine Hat had gas lights and electricity when Bob was a child, but it wasn't in the country. Much of rural Alberta did not have electricity until the mid 50s or telephones until the mid 60s. After that, people could have refrigerators and things like that. There was a very sharp difference between people living in the country and people living in the city in terms of amenities. Because of Medicine Hat's gas deposits, the gas lights were never turned off as it was cheaper to leave them on. People in the city would cook with gas stoves, while people in the country cooked on wood or coal stoves.\n\nBob was an only child and wasn't used to playing with other children when he moved to the city. He had dogs, cats, and a horse on the ranch. In the city, at school there were a lot more people that he met. In the country, people would come to visit.\n\nBranding was a big event in the country as well as vaccinating the cattle. It was a large event where people would get together and help each other.

It became a tradition that he now does for his grandchildren. Bob couldn't get an Easy-Bake oven for his daughter, so he built one from scratch using parts on hand. His daughter loved it.\n\nChristmas was celebrated with family, with relatives rotating who would host. On Boxing Day friends would stop in for a drink or a bite to eat, but it always depended on the weather.\n\nBob received a red sleigh for Christmas with harnesses for Bob's ponies. A lot of his gifts were home made. They made a lot of decorations for their Christmas tree. When snow was packed down enough, the ponies could walk on top whereas the horses would fall through.

Most things were either homemade, recovered, or borrowed. During the Great Depression, everyone got by with what they had. Some Christmases, there was so little money that Bob's mother would send out her oil paintings as gifts. They raised turkeys once and gave out Turkeys as gifts. A lot of children's toys were homemade gifts. Most gifts were practical things like work gloves or kitchen items; there wasn't money to spend on frivolous things. Droughts started in Western Canada shortly after the stock market crash with the worst drought being in 1937. That was also one of the last ones. After the war started, the economy started picking up. A lot of people left their land because the land could not support them.\n\nBob predicts that agriculture will be handled by a few very large producers, after which the price of food will increase in North America. He talks about some of the trends that are driving the trend towards agriculture becoming a corporate concern. Young people can make money in oil but not in agriculture. Most people can't make a living in agriculture anymore.
