Added by gorden-gibson, 01 Sep 2013 Edith Fowke offers anecdotal evidence that the song was
known in at least five Canadian provinces before 1896.
It expresses the sorrow of a local man or woman as her
soldier/lover prepares to return to Ontario or as his
girlfriend or wife can't take the harsh life in the
west and leaves him to return to Canada. Source / Web : | Red River Valley (Song) | |
