A historical, epic combining and refining of Fight
On! Parts One and Two, Fight On! is a recounting of
the occupation and colonization of the Canadian West inspired by the real-life
adventures and misadventures of Francis Dickens, son of Charles Dickens and
member of the North-West Mounted Police.
Francis
Jeffery Dickens arrives in Canada in 1874 with all the prejudices and
presumptions of a white colonist/settler. After serving 11 years as a member of
the North-West Mounted Police, Frank is horrified by the mendacity and theft
that robbed the Indigenous Peoples of their lands. He learns to respect the
traditions and wisdom of First Nations culture and begins to understand the
urgent need to live in harmony with Mother Nature.
