Our Voices
Young Quebec natives tell their own funny, poignant and moving
stories through a series of short films about important aspects of their
lives; their land, culture, music and identity. We meet the filmmakers
in their own homes and on their own terms.
- A film by a teenage aboriginal mother about her life as a very young mother
- A documentary about the loss of life due to car accidents in a community in Northern Quebec living along a highway built by a mining company
- A story of hope from a disabled aboriginal man whose film about his own life turned the attitudes of his community around
- One family's reflexion on the languages they speak through four generations.

The Bluenose Legacy
Bluenose Legacy sails into maritime history and the year 1750 when the first schooner was launched. It was the beginning of the vessel's contribution to the east coast economy, to conflict and ultimately the growth of the country. Life at sea was harsh and treacherous for the fishermen who toiled on the North Atlantic and they sacrificed much to survive.
Bluenose Legacy has rare film footage of the glory days of Bluenose. It was in the 1920s when Canadians competed with the Americans in the great North Atlantic Fishermen's International Trophy Races - a prestigious event in which Bluenose remained unbeaten. But in the twentieth century the great days of schooners began to fade as they fell victim to war, mechanization and the oceans they nearly conquered. But then through the efforts of those who value the preservation of Canadian heritage, the magic of these magnificent vessels lives on as Bluenose is rebuilt to once again sail the waters of Nova Scotia
