Cold Wars, Cruise Ships, and the Northwest Passage

There are a few communities, up in northern Canada, with a dark history and a worrying future. Resolute is one of them, sat at the east of the once-legendary Northwest Passage. In a few years, it might be a tourist destination. Here's why. [Pull down the description!]

Context and history:
Broken Promises, the stories of those moved:    • BROKEN PROMISES - TRAILER  
The Canadian government's apology, years later: https://www.rcaanc-cirnac.gc.ca/eng/1...

Thanks to Kataisee Attagutsiak (ᑲᑕᐃᓯ ᐊᑕᒍᑦᓯᐊᖅ) for proofreading this script: I hope I've provided enough context there.

Over on the Park Bench, I'm telling more stories from behind-the-scenes, and there's a brilliant final one coming up soon:    • Tales From The Arctic 2: Helicopters,...  

I'm here because of Chris Hadfield's Generator Arctic - go check out everyone else who was on the trip, and have a look at tickets for their show at Massey Hall, Toronto, on November 12th! http://generatorevent.com
