This movie is just another fine example of Liberal stupidity. See FarenHYPE 911 to expose all the errors in this "film"

I rather watch Borat's shows than Michael Moore's documentaries. Moore's film tell nothing new and he profits from the already converted. The fact is that if the United States had not gone into Iraq and Afghanistan then the Americans had been criticized for not going into these places. To me Moore's point of view is bias.

Ah! The power of editing and persuasion. Moore's film is fraught with almost as much proaganda as the Bush Administration itself. Although his previous films shed some much needed light on topics such as corporate greed and gun control (or lack of it), this film is basically an attack of the current government. I'm sure there are some kernals of truth, I just couldn't get past how biased this really was.

While the Bush administration has made some obvious and significant mistakes since 9/11, categorizing this propaganda as a documentary is seriously flawed.

According to Merriam-Webster, documentaries are factual and objective. If "Fahrenheit" meets this criteria, then I'll tell my immigrant friends to watch "Strange Brew" to know what it means to be a Canadian.

I think some people have truly missed the point of this movie and that was to START THINKING. People need to wake up just a little and speak up when ANY incident happens that is covered up by the government.

It is our right and duty as free citizens to question government motives when the whole truth is not told to us. When personal freedoms earned by people that have fought (and died) for it are taken away by politicians who have other's interest in mind, not yours and mine.

There may be holes in the Moore's movies, but if anyone blindly believes what happened at 9/11 as told by 'authorities' to be true, we live in a sad, sad world. There are WAY too many unexplained phenomenon surrounding that day to go unanswered. Things that have never happened before or since 9/11 need to be investigated.

Why does this matter to me (a Canadian)? Our troops are dying in Afghanistan based on the statement that '30 Canadians died in a terrorist attack on 9/11'. The Bin laden tape (supposed confession) is not enough proof to send good people to die for. That was ALL we have been given. EVER. People need to think. Research. Ask questions from our government. If you had a family member die in 9/11, you'd never stop looking for answers, would you?

Watch the collapses yourself and tell me it was due to FIRE (never before or since has this happened). And what about WTC 7?!? Look it up, then ask questions.

Great doc. CBC should show more strong docs. during prime time. The world is changing more rapidly than we think and we need to be informed.

Just like the CBC to be showing this movie.... more anti-Americanism. Michael Moore has shown himself and his movies to be full of half truths, biased, and unfair.
Canadians should expect more uplifting broadcasts from the CBC.

I am a Canadian living in America, and I can testify to the worries of soldiers that their mission in Iraq is never discussed, much less Afghanistan. This may be untrue elsewhere, but in Idaho the topic is never brought up.

In defence of the movie "Sicko", Michael Moore stated that in lieu of a public discussion, he was not being untrue to the documentary artform if what he films is real life. It doesn't need to be balanced.

In America, I can find mothers of fallen soldiers who believe they were lied to. You can just let a camera run, and it's a documentary (as long as you verify the woman is a Gold Star mother). Nothing more is needed. Trust me, when the other side talks, balance is not what you'll find. (ie: Fox News, Michael Savage, Bill O'Reilly)

Although the links between the Bush family and the Bin Ladens makes the movie worth a look, the film only scratches the surface of what really happened on 9/11. Truth seekers should start with the film 'Loose Change'and anything on You Tube or Google Video under 'WTC 7 demolition' or '911 Truth'. The truth is available to any one who looks deeper. Thanks CBC for at least being willing to present this film to a wider audience however it is only a small piece in a very large puzzle.

The documentary record is clear. Attacking the messenger, in this case Moore, is completely irrelevant. Dispute the facts or shut up. Biased? All work is biased; only work which clearly states that bias is useful, since you can sift through it and see what is compatible with the factual record. It always amazes me how relatively uncontroversial facts, plainly in the public domain (often for many years), are hysterically reacted to by people who often reflexively lecture others on a healthy intellectual culture in a democracy. Try deep seated contempt towards dissent in a polyarchy.

I don/t care if the facts are correct or not. All I can think about, is the mess we made of this poor people daily life in Iraq, and the picture of this poor 8 to 10 years old iraquien boy whom was so terrified before his death that he urinated himself. Thanks for showing F. 9/11 on your chanel, because I'm sure US channels will not be able to play it.

My apologies To CBC and its staff, I was out of line with my original comments. Thank you for this chance to speak up!

two thumbs up for cbc!!. that documentary
was enlighting.

After watching this movie I was horrified that we as people are allowing this to go on. I have always had a dislike of Bush due to his obvious arrogance, power tripping, and love of war. This movie confirmed my assumptions are correct and we need to stop the loss of American and Canadian soldiers. We have enough problems in our homelands.

People in the US and Canada have people everywhere in need of help and we go in without being asked to solve problems we are not even sure are in need of help or want our help. If Harper and Bush are both voted back into power the troops that lose their lives lose them because we let the powers that be continue.

Thank gawd there is Michael Moores in this world, everyone else would leave their heads in the sand and beleive what the people in Office say. "it" was about OIL. You dont think so? Then dont use any Oil product or Biproduct at all in any form for a month.

I'm very glad that the CBC showed this film. Free speech is one of the main elements of democracy and people need a catlayst to start talking politics especially when goverment decisons precipitate a war.

Moore's film provides this and in addition reveals how war results in repercussions for years to come. I applaud Michael Moore for his ability to stand up and express his views. Maybe we could compare Moore to the kid in the fable the King with no clothes.

Even though we all know most of the truth about 9/11 and the war in Iraq the film Fahrenheit 11 revealed a much clearer picture for us. Thank you Michael Moore.

I am a Canadian. I believe in what I saw in the documentary not because I am an easy follower but because I am a thinker.

How could anyone suggest for a moment that this film is propaganda and is 'overblown'. We have been following the disastrous development in the US on the tube ever since 9/11 happened and before.The lies about Iraq having WMD when in fact they never had. The President being chums with the Bin Laden Family. Even the 'Elron' scandal was born out of the oil deals. I feel so much for the poor people in Iraq, the woman and children that were tortured and had to die just so some people can make lots of money. Not to mention the many young American lives that were lost and for what? Pity those poor mothers who's hearts are bleeding.

I can't imagine what it must be like to loose a son or daughter in a unjust war like that or loose one or more loved ones in a catastrophy like 9/11.

It surely is absurd to say that Moore had to 'make anything up' or be 'biased' or speak 'the untruth'. Lets not be in denial.

I enjoy this doc...although it is sensational and some of the "facts" can be argued from a different perspective.

The sad truth brought to me by Mr. Moore is that most Americans (and Canadians) can be lied to because of there apathy to a collision of culture that we are once again facing. To turn to war, as we have in the past, shows a lack moral fortitude. And, as history has shown, because our leaders see nothing more then dollars they chose to go to war with the poor paying the price.

One thing you do not see in this war, yet, is the draft....because that targeted the rich as well as the middle class...and helped to turn public opinion against the veitnam war, which the present administration would like to ignore.

This war will managed very carefully so as to try to prop up public opinion and the press so I must give a thumbs up to MR. Moore

Who stood against the elite to bring some light to this unsightly plight we are in.

Furthermore...

I have lived half of my life in the United States, I know first hand of their feeling toward these actions and without people like Mr. Moore to help to balance out the patriotic surge of war we could find ourselves in a much deeper mess then we now see.

maybe it is time the canadian press held the fire to the canadian government and made them fold their tents in afghanistan. i cant allow canadian soldiers to die there while killing afghans. that nonsense is surely none of our business.

i liken the actions of the usa to germany in 39 when they started the second war. canada is playing the part of italy. i'm thoroughly ashamed of the canadian government for this.

thank you for making me understanding your film on f 9/11 and the relationship bush family and the saduis . i agreed the U S soldiers are fighting a losing war . i am a simple man but this is just a thought suppose the soldiers all band together and refused to fight the war in iraq what will the us goverment do then . something to think about very simple though but i like i said i'm a simple man

Thank you for showing the film, it makes one think!! I pray none of my four children decide to join the forces.

I believe that Michael Moore is the greatest producer to actually open the public's eyes to what is really going on. I have always said that the people who want the wars should be the first to go out and fight for their so called cause. As Michael said in Fahrenheit 9/11, he tried to get some of the "Bush" Administration to sign up their children to go and fight, but who in their right minds would want to give up their children to war. It would be interesting to see how many of the war deciders have family that could be fighting. Being a Canadian, I believe it applies to our Government also.

Jose Marino writes: "To me Moore's point of view is bias."

Unlike your view, of course, Jose.

I saw this film when it came out, I screened it in several of my classes in its first year, and watching it tonight I see that it still stands up pretty well. There's still no refuting its truth. So if it's a truth you'd rather not face, then it'll make you angry and embarrassed. And if you can't refute it's truth with a higher truth, you're pretty much reduced to simply calling it "bias" or "liberal stupidity" [see above]. Well, too bad, folks: you backed the wrong horse -- get used to it.

This movie was interesting as are a lot of the 9-11 movies floating around. Of course Michael Moore's film will be biased - however regardless of bias - within the majority of the films made - there appears to be a common denominator - something is just not right with Bush's plight for war. There are too many inconsistencies - too many things that don't add up.

No one will ever know what really happened except those in the White House so any movie made will never be completely accurate. But movies like this one and other's depicting Bush on the war path - they make you stop and think - they make you look at the world in another light.

Take from it what you want - hopefully questions about Bush's administration and their justification for war and the deaths of thousands of civilians and soldiers. This war is very senseless, needless and unjustified and I think that is the real message being portrayed.

One day while I was browsing in a video store, a couple came in and wanted to rent Fahrenheit 9/11. The young fellow behind the counter said "sure, but there is no way you should view that without also seeing Fahrenhype 9/11 so that you can see exactly what Moore has done and the lies he has told".

What does that kid behind the counter know that CBC doesn't? Obviously lots but then again.... CBC's objective for airing Fahrenheit 9/11 wasn't to see that anything that resembles truth would be broadcast to the public, was it?

I was glad to finally watch F-9/11 i never did really care for bush and it make as me happy to be a Canadian,i feel sorry for Americans to have a nut in the white house to see his and his compadres and their close dealings with the bin ladens.To still see those planes slamming in the towers is still so horrific i just couldn't imagine as a American how you would be able to come to terms with an attack of that magnitude on your home soil,and as as a fellow member of the free world you have my sympathy weather you want it or not.

Moore rightly questions the invasion and occupation of Iraq. Terrorists can be American, like McVeigh, or German or Canadian. This war speaks more of Bush's and his Straussian advisors' ambition to make the world safe for profiteers and pure hell for the rest of us. Bankers and CEO's rule us all and, to paraphrase Orwell, only by making us suffer are they certain that we are following their will and not our own.

Anyone who thinks Farenhype is a better film than Moore's should find the clip of Ann Coulter telling a CBC reporter that Canada took part in the Vietnam War. Obviously she doesn't check her facts.
