Listen "How Minden Was Named plus The Santa Bandit"
Episode Synopsis
This week, Kate talks about the naming of Minden in Haliburton County. There are a couple of theories discussed, but bottom line is no one really knows for sure anymore. One theory is that it goes back to the Seven Years War. Plus, Paul talks about a plague of bank robberies in 1960's Montreal and how it even had a ripple effect as far away as Toronto. Today it's about one of those robbers - The Santa Bandit.
