It happened in 1883. William McCardell and two other Canadian Pacific Railway workers happened upon the hotsprings. To settle land disputes and several claims of ownership that were erupting over the new-found liquid gold, the Canadian government expropriated the land and formed Canada's first National Park. The original reserve, formed in 1886, was only 10 square miles. The park has grown to become Canada's second largest National Park (Jasper is the largest) and one of the most famous in North America.
