The Great Canadian Tour
Atlantic Provinces
A cross-country adventure exploring the sights, sounds, and stories that make Canada interesting and unique. In this episode, host Glen McInnis visits the Atlantic Provinces. Learn more about the prosperous future of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada's youngest and easternmost province. For the first time after joining Confederation, it will become a "have" province. Join Glen as he commemorates Memorial Day in St.John's, paying respect to the losses of Newfoundlanders during the First World War. Glen speaks with Aubrey J. Halfyard (Royal Newfoundland Regiment Advisory Council (RNRAC)), Anthony McAllister (Royal Newfoundland Regiment), David Parsons (RNRAC), Reg Anstey (Newfoundland and Labrador Federation of Labour), Korey Turpin (owner, Atlantica Restaurant), and Tom Marshall (Newfoundland and Labrador Minister of Finance). Next, Glen visits Nova Scotia, where the haunting story of Africville is told. Glen speaks with Donald Clairmont (Dalhousie University), Irvine Carvery (Africville Genealogy Society), Peter Kelly (Mayor of Halifax), and Sheila Fougere (city councillor). Also on the program, Glen asks ordinary people from all four Atlantic Provinces what makes their part of Canada so unique.
