After farming in Ontario, Canada, for over 20 years, Kenneth McKenzie, an
immigrant from Inverness-shire, Scotland, travelled from Guelph, Ontario to
Burnside, west of Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, several times from 1867 to 1870,
establishing one of the first farms in the area.
The Diary covers four of these trips and the work that went into establishing
a home and farm at Burnside. This was at a crossroads in history with first a
provisional government lead by Louis Riel, and then the establishment of the
Manitoba Government in 1870.
