Summary
This is the incredible story of Canada's largest manhunt. It began with several RCMP constables trying to serve a search warrant, to the later shooting of one of the policemen, to a search by hundreds of men spending 7 weeks tracking the elusive Albert Johnson for 240 kilometres across the frozen North. He was eventually caught and killed, but the identity of Albert Johnson, the Mad Trapper of Rat River, and the reasons why he was so determined to run, remains a mystery to this day. During the entire chase, the Mounties never heard Johnson utter a single word. Descriptions of violence. 2004
