When the Snowy Mountains Hydroelectric Scheme was begun, it required more manpower than Australia could offer, especially people with particular skills and training. The Scheme attracted tens of thousands of skilled immigrants, resulting in not only an increase in Australia's population, but in its cultural diversity. These migrants were happy to come to Australia as their own countries were suffering post-war economic depression, and Australia offered new opportunities for them.
The Man From Snowy River, in the bush ballad of the same name by Banjo Paterson, did not die at the end of the poem. He and his hardy mountain horse returned safely and triumphant, having rounded up the wild horses, and the colt from Old Regret that escaped and started the chase in the first place. However, the man on whom Banjo Paterson's poem was based, horseman Jack Riley, died of combined old age and illness in July 1914.
