For several years after the CPR triggered the creation of Scotsguard in 1913, the village was one of the liveliest spots on the prairie; new restaurants, a dance hall, hotel, pool hall and even a theatre. In fact, Scotsguard's early boom times earned it the moniker "Little Chicago" - mainly because of the proliferation of gambling joints. And that action kept the law busy.
