A Look Back at Our Times
New CPAC Documentary Series Premieres October 14th
(Ottawa, October 4, 2012) – Coinciding with its 20th anniversary year, CPAC proudly presents Our Times, a new eight-part documentary series highlighting the major policy themes and personalities that wrote Canada’s story the past two decades.
From award-winning journalist Holly Doan, Our Times chronicles Canada’s battle with the deficit and household debt growth; recounts the rise and fall of the Reform and Bloc parties; details the political impact of the Internet revolution; examines both sides of the debate that brought about the legalization of same-sex marriage; documents the political and human impact of 9/11 and terrorism on Canadian life; and looks at the changing political landscape of the vanishing majority. In addition, the series tracks down once-public figures – from the man who encountered the ‘Shawinigan handshake’ to Canada’s first woman premier, and more – to share their stories and where they are today.
Join CPAC Sunday evenings beginning October 14th to revisit the past two decades of Canada’s political, economic and social trajectory.
