Documentary series

In a time when we focus more and more on the Great North, the documentary series Arctic Territory is of particular interest. Its main objective is to give television viewers a wider knowledge of the North. Filmed in high definition in the USA, Russia, Greenland, Norway, Finland, and throughout the Canadian Arctic, the series will explore various themes: Canadian ownership on inland Arctic seas, military presence in the North, the North West passage, exploiting natural resources, occupation of territory, climate change, and more. The series was broadcast in autumn 2007 on Radio Canada, RDI, TFO and APTN.
