The Stony Monday Riot erupted #onthisday in 1849! The riot began at a political meeting and quickly degenerated into all-out gang warfare during which an unarmed bystander, David Borthwick, was shot and killed and more than 30 others were injured.
Another fun recreation for #ThenandNow! What a great view from a postcard, the “Rideau Locks and Chateau Laurier, Ottawa, Ont.’ 1910.
