When the story begins, Gene and his sidekick (Pat Butram) are traveling from Montana to Canada. Why? Because Gene is a US Marshal and he's on the trail of a gang that has been robbing banks in the States and running to safety in Canada. But it seems the Canadians also have their hands full with these crooks, and the pair soon come upon some Mounties who are being attacked by the gang. One of the Mounties is killed and Gene explains to the Mounties who he is and why he's there. The trail leads to a woman and her very annoying brother...and they are related to one of the gang members and the brother idolizes the crooks! So, it looks like it's a job for good 'ol social worker Gene to set the boy straight...and capture the baddies.
The story is pretty unremarkable and the songs Gene sings are not among his best. Now this does not mean it's a bad film and Autry fans will like it...but it's not exactly one you should rush to see.
