Join CBC and Parks Canada for two family-friendly films that celebrate Indigenous perspectives and traditions, and spotlight stories from local communities.

7 pm: Returning to Ulukhaktok (22 min, English)

Description: Meet six kids from a small community in the Arctic, who felt disconnected from their Inuvialuit identity — until they go on a journey to connect with their past. The students teamed up with CBC Kids News to document a trip they took to see their ancestors' artwork and artifacts on display in museums across the country. They discovered a connection that runs deeper than they thought.

7:30 pm: Manaachihtow : À la rescousse des animaux sauvages - Épisode 2: Le bernache, le faucon et la belette (23 min, French)

Description: Maïtée and today’s ambassador animal, Una the Great Horned Owl, introduce us to a Canada goose with injured legs, a merlin with a wing injury, and a little weasel who is a bit too friendly. Please note that this film is in French only.
