TV documentary on the conditions of Canada's trappers who, having been exploited by middlemen and large fur companies for years, are now organizing a co-operative movement to sell their own furs. The trappers, many of them Indians, cannot maintain their traditional livelihood without trapping. Their co-operative is called the Ontario Trapper's Association and the movement is spreading to include trappers in Quebec and the West. Seen are scenes of men trapping for beaver pelts in Northern Ontario and selling them at a fur auction in North Bay. <27mn>
