Reporter William Woollard visits various sites across Canada where new technology is being developed or implemented. At Picton, Ontario a nuclear power station is viewed, focusing on the CANDU reactor. At McGill University, research into appropriate technology for Third World countries is examined, including new home-building materials; a self-heating greenhouse; and a solar cooker. Aeronautical technology is reviewed with interior and ground-to-air shots of a Twin Otter aircraft, and a look at City Centre Airline's short take-off and landing program. Doctor Thomas Chang explains the workings of his portable kidney dialysis machine, a break-through in medical research. <22mn>Language:EnglishDetailed holdings information: -
