There's a series of commercials in Canada that promote Canadian history - the "Heritage Minutes" are usually about happy, feel-good parts of our history.
The latest one ... isn't. -- Rob Kelk "Governments have no right to question the loyalty of those who oppose them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of the same sovereign, servants of the same law." - Michael Ignatieff, addressing Stanford University in 2012
It's good that they are owning up to it though. There's plenty of countries that would try and hide such a shameful part of their history.
Agreed - and we're owing up to it because there are too many people who didn't know it happened. (I.e., there was at least one person who didn't know it happened.)
One thing that isn't mentioned in the video is that the inquiry into Chanie Wenjack's death was what brought the whole horrid, terrible situation out into the open. -- Rob Kelk "Governments have no right to question the loyalty of those who oppose them.

That Marvel vid was well done, but the original sound effects were overpowering the music in places.

Cute title: My tax dollars at play.
More serious title: If only all police officers were this friendly. -- Rob Kelk "Governments have no right to question the loyalty of those who oppose them.

It's been taken down, alas. It was a video of a beat cop on the Canada Day patrol, dancing with a passer-by who accidentally knocked her hat off.

You're not the first one to think of that.

I love these glove and boots guys. Especially this "Product Testing" video (the conceit is they buy a few infomercial products and test them out)
Also: Creatures of "Yes:" These guys restored some vintage video gear from the 70s and recorded these muppet-like puppets ''We don't just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.'' -- James Nicoll
Stumbled across an interesting music videohttp://www.youtube.com/v/B9BLMNn0PrQ&version=3 ... tube_gdata

Yes, the only reason paper cuts don't take off your finger is because the paper flexes. If the paper doesn't flex, it's a nasty weapon ... which was well-known by Yomiko Readman.

But what a perfume ad!
