About
This 5-part continuation of the series portrays the history of Canada, with actors playing the parts of the people who lived it. As culled from native oral history and the diaries and letters of the people who were there, these are the stories of the men and women who shaped this country, in their own words. Part 5 contains additional documentary footage, building on the themes presented in series 2.
