1x2 - Talking Canadian
January 29, 2004
Why do English-speaking Canadians talk the way we do? Why do we say couch instead of chesterfield, windshield instead of windscreen, and ee-ther and eye-ther, sometimes interchangeably? Why do Newfoundlanders have a distinctive accent and use colourful words like ballicatter that can’t be heard anywhere else? How have French words like portage and prairie, and Native words like chipmunk and toboggan become part of our everyday speech? How have immigrants who are not from the British Isles had an impact on the way we speak?

February 5, 2004

1x4 - The Year of the Hunter: The story of Nanook
February 12, 2004
Robert Flaherty was the very first to bring us a film based on the idea that reality could be as gripping as fiction. After years as an explorer in Canada’s North, and funded by a fur trading company, he undertook the mission of chronicling the life of an Inuit hunter near Port Harrison, on the eastern shore of Hudson’s Bay. The story of how he did it, and his adventures in one of the most inhospitable landscapes on earth, is one of courage, adversity, but most of all, one of friendship.
