History Of Edmonton Hookup Culture

Hugging the North Saskatchewan River, a couple hours north of the other Alberta city that shall not be named, Edmonton is the cultural hub of this western province; fringe theatre, farmer's markets, and dinosaur-soaked soils are all here, entangled with solid rig men and cowgirls. Edmontonians are proud of their electric "redneck" reputation.

edmonton02

Fort Edmonton, or Edmonton House, was the name of a Hudson's Bay Company trading post from 1795 to 1891. Fort Edmonton Park is Canada's largest living history museum. An important region for both Europeans and indigenous peoples, the province of Alberta was incorporated into Confederation in 1905. Its capital at Edmonton has been evolving in creative and interesting ways for more than 100 years. Edmonton's nickname for many years has been "Canada's Festival City," while it is also the capital of Alberta.

Hookups in Edmonton have been the focus of novels, like this, also its geography and economy has been providing inspiration for gritty encounters and sexy serenades. Prairie hookups are the best hookups!
