This program is based on an incident at Moonbeam, near Kapuskasing, in Northern Ontario. A labour dispute at a paper mill forces a confrontation between the strikers at the mill and settlers who cut the wood and haul it into town. Approximately 250 strikers are charged with participating in a riot and 20 settlers are charged with non-capital murder because three men are killed in the riot.~Settlers and mill workers are interviewed, including Joe LaForce, president of Local 2995, and Fred Flatt, general manager of the Spruce Falls company. There is footage of the town and the paper-making process.
