The Defence of Canada
This series of films, written and hosted by journalist and military historian Gwynne Dyer, examines Canada's role in the international power game, its tradition of alliances with world powers, and our future role on the world stage. The series combines recent footage shot in ten countries with archival films dating back to the Boer War (1899) and interviews with noted military leaders, politicians, and frontline troops.
