And being a Saskatchewanite (and a proud one, at that), I must promote the beautiful city!<br /><br />The most interesting fact about Moose Jaw is the network of tunnels that run underneath the city streets. These were used during prohibition and a connection between those tunnels and one Al Capone has been made. Moose Jaw has done an awesome job bringing the history of that era alive (you can tour the tunnels - go back in time) and a Canadian author (Mary Harelkin Bishop) has created a children's series based on the tunnels.<br /><br />Funny name, but awesome city :)Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13297537075103893956noreply@blogger.com
