Dont they have medicine they're supposed to take, these assholes?

I've always been enamored with 2 particular Canadian figures/events and think that their stories could make for genuinely great and entertaining movies. Canadian history is incredibly slept on and there is so much ripe for the picking.

​

The first picture is from the autopsy of Albert Johnson, and The story of The Mad Trapper of Rat River, a drifter with little known of him. Showed up on the trap lines one day and after a dispute with local trappers, ended up leading the RCMP on a month long manhunt through the wilderness before being gunned down. This started with a 15 hour seige at Johnsons cabin with hundreds of rounds fired and dynamite used in an attempt to flush him out. My grandfather was a mechanic for the pilot Wop May who helped the RCMP in locating the Mad Trapper, so there's a tinge of personal connection there.

​

The second picture and other story is that of Louis Riel. The controversial revolutionary Metis leader, and first Premier of Manitoba, which he helped to create. He spent years protesting and fighting the government in the name of the Metis people. After his first major rebellion, he was called upon again in his exile in Montana to rebel against the government, only to eventually be hung for treason.

​

What else do yall think would make for a great movie about a Canadian historical event?

After watching 95% of The Return (2 eps to go) it dawned on me that theres two scenes from the Fallout TV Show that are probably a slight reference to Cooper and Dougie Jones.

Hank making a cup of coffee as the first thing he does when he gets to the Vault HQ (cannot find an image for the life of me)

​

And the final episode where he wipes his memory, while it could be me reaching, this mf in, this suit, in Vegas, with that look on his face screams my boy Dougie.

My Ma lives in a small town and I was visiting the other day. During the evening we heard dogs goin crazy across town and then this crazy scream like call. I thought its a cougar but I've also been told it could be a lynx or fox. It sounded so much like a woman screaming, which I've heard Cougars are mistaken for so thats what lead me to my conclusion.

Apologies for it not being the best audio. Working with what I got.

Which one should I do next?
