Who is the First Nations man on the ground, and how did he get there? A mysterious, disturbing image captured on the streets of Saskatoon more than a century ago continues to provoke questions and outrage. “The man who is on the ground is the only one with dignity and honor in this picture,” read another post. The photo of the settlers standing over the First Nations man that caught the eye of Silversides, Tootoosis and countless others, remains a mystery to those who care for the original image at Saskatoon’s Western Development Museum, but also to his family. According to the self-described “story keeper,” the picture was taken in Saskatoon on July 1, 1906.
