The Invisible Nation.
Another good one from the NFB Canada [Watch it in 720p Hi-Def]
Some really interesting archive footage. Black and white.
Kind of a history of how, the British ruling classes stole Canada from the Indian nations, and where they ended up.
[Hey if its any consolation to our indian brothers, they did exactly the same thing to us, stealing tens of millions of acres of common land, during successive inclosures acts, evicting villages, committing people to starvation, and murder, then wiped it from the collective national memory. Land which had been strip farmed for centuries.]
Something the national trust, England largest private landlord, dont talk about when you visit the stately homes, with their 'tea towel' image's.
[Look up 'open field system', 'medievel strip farming' 'general inclosures acts' if you're interested.]
** some might find controversial viewing**
