The Terrace Mutiny tells the story of an anti-conscription uprising in the northwestern B.C. town that saw thousands of Canadian soldiers disobey their superior officers and even take up arms in a revolt against the government's decision to send them to war. Kelsey Wiebe, curator of the Heritage Park Museum, calls it "the longest and most significant" land-based mutiny in Canadian history. "We hear from all kinds of people who grew up in Terrace and are maybe old-timers in Terrace who say that they had never heard of the Terrace mutiny," Wiebe told CBC Radio's Daybreak North host Carolina de Ryk.
