Last
Train Across
Canada
- VHS
Veteran war correspondent Murray
Sayle journeys west across Canada at a time when sections of the country's
"national dream" - its vast transcontinental railroad - faced extinction.
In his 7,000-mile adventure, Sayle discovers Mounties, moose and a colorful
assortment of railroad men and women. He also shares glimpses of a lesser-known
Canada - fishermen of the Maritime provinces, Indian settlements on the
edge of the Arctic Ocean, polar bears frolicking and cowboys in the prairies
- all loosely linked by the now resurgent transcontinental railway. |
