Michaud House: The French Connection

The Michaud family came west from Quebec in the 1870s, becoming the first French Canadian family to settle in Langley. Ten years later they built a farmhouse now known as Michaud House and preserved by the Langley Heritage Society. Students from Backstreet Studios at Brookswood Secondary School in Langley tell the story of this treasure.
