Television documentary on the 1957-1967 decade under the leadership of John G. Diefenbaker and Lester B. Pearson. Part eight of eight signals the end of a political era through archival footage, interviews, and narrative recalling the 1968 Liberal leadership upheaval. Noteworthy footage of: Robert Stanfield as newly-elected leader of the Conservative Party of Canada; Pearson resigning as Liberal leader in December 1967 and announcing his plans in 1968 to ask for a vote of confidence in the House; leadership candidate John Turner at the 1968 convention; Justice Minister Pierre Trudeau speaking on federalism at a 1968 constitutional conference; and Trudeau acclaimed as new leader of the Liberal Party in 1968. In interview segments Members of Parliament, including David Lewis, Alvin Hamilton, Paul Martin, and Bryce MacKasey; economist Abraham Rotstein; and Senator Eugene Forsey, reflect on the leadership of Diefenbaker and Pearson. <60mn>
