Borradaile; music, Robert FlemingCountry of production:cnSponsor:The Canadian Department of Resources and DevelopmentDescription:An appraisal of the social and economic development of the Mackenzie District, Northwest Territories. The film gives a kaleidoscopic review of the topography, resources, development and settlement of this most northerly Canadian frontier. It depicts the region not as a "harsh, stubborn and silent" land, but one full of varied activity and opportunity. The life of the Eskimo and Indian is seen. Shown also are the great buffalo and reindeer herds reared at the Fort Smith game preserve as a future meat supply, the thriving mining communities of Eldorado and Yellowknife, and the progress made in educational and health services. <32mn>Subjects:AMERICAN BISON~ANIMALS~EDUCATION~HEALTH~INDIANS OF NORTH AMERICA~INUIT~NATIONAL PARKS & RESERVES~NATURAL RESOURCES~NORTHWEST TERRITORIES~PLACES & REGIONS~REINDEER~YELLOWKNIFELanguage:EnglishOriginal number:106B 0151 040Notes:Detailed holdings information: -
