Description:
- Canada's northern frontier is being pushed back by modern pioneers who are tapping the vast resources of the Yukon and Northwest Territories. VOICES OF THE NORTH, a new film from Canadian National, captures the colour and drama of the north - the majestic changes of the seasons, the vast frozen barrens and the mighty rivers. It documents man's determined efforts to tame the new country and put its vast resources to work for the good of mankind. Telecommunications are playing a vital role in opening the Canadian north. Microwave towers and telephone lines are symbols of the booming growth in business, industry and natural resources in this important and valuable part of the country. For such isolated communities as Inuvik, Fort Simpson and Hay River they are a link to the world - they are the "Voices of the North". This film will acquaint you with the changes under way on Canada's frontier and with the people who are making them happen. <28mn 5s>
