In this portion, three people give their perspective on the country. The first person is an avid fisherman. The film begins with a shot of someone fly fishing on a lake with majestic mountains in the background (00:17), as the man talks about Canada’s incredible fishing. This is followed by scenic footage of British Columbia (00:40). The man mentions a lodge on the north end of Lake of the Woods, Ontario (01:00) that is a great place to base fishing trips out of because it also has a golf course, swimming, and other activities. Animals are abundant in this part of Canada, as beavers (02:00), black bears, and all kinds of birds call the area home. Lake St. John country (03:03), or Lac Saint-Jean, in Quebec has incredible lakes and rivers for fishing, such as the Serpentine River (04:23). New Brunswick also has world-class fishing rivers—fishing the Tobique River (04:05) is one of his favorites. He joins a group of men going out to harpoon fish for swordfish (05:14) in Nova Scotia (04:45). The film goes to the second narrator, a young boy from Omaha, Nebraska. He talks about the impressive timber industry (06:50) in British Columbia and how logs are transported downriver (07:25). He also mentions that in Canada, Royal Mounted Police ride boats (07:45) more than horses, that you can meet Eskimos and their huskies in Churchill (07:52), see imposing railway engines (08:14), and have breakfast picnics in Jasper, British Columbia. Watching a black bear play (08:41), skiing with rope-tow lifts (08:50), and taking in a Canadian parade (09:21), rodeo (09:35), and the Toronto Exhibition (09:58) are just some of the other activities to enjoy in Canada. The last person to talk about Canada is an artist (10:55). He discusses how every area of Canada is different but beautiful. He mentions the colorful beauty of Newfoundland’s rugged coastline (11:22), the rivers and roads of Prince Edward Island (12:12), the south shore of Nova Scotia (12:38), New Brunswick’s rolling green hills (13:02), and Quebec’s bird colonies (13:29), old farm houses, and windmill (13:52). Rural Ontario (14:08) with its farmlands and lakes, the grasslands of Alberta (14:46) with their spectacular sunsets, the Canadian Rockies (14:56) in Jasper National Park with their breathtaking peaks and waterfalls (15:15), and Mt. Robson (15:25) in British Columbia are all unique and majestic parts of Canada. The final places the artist mentions, which conclude the film, are the village of Kitwanga (16:00) and its totem pole collection, the town of Prince Rupert (16:07), the Inside Passage (16:28), and the Yukon’s northern town, Whitehorse (16:51).
