Quote:
"The basic thing was an attack on the kind of film—of social meaning—we were doing. We felt deeply involved in the country and we were filming it. Canadians were seeing themselves and their country for the first time, and they liked it. We were a threat to the way things were and the way some people wanted them to continue. In the U.S. there were a few individuals doing it, but up here it was a movement—the National Film Board."
