Many people(especially Canadians) have commented about the use of the word "Eskimo" on the map. It has a much more controversial historical context in Canadian history, compared to its usage in Alaska and the continental United States; that I did not know about. This appears to be significantly due to the fact that the Canadian government issued "Eskimo tags" which had a number instead of the bearer's name that was used for official purposes.

The only country in the world who gained their independence simply by asking nicely. Proud to be Canadian :)

Welcome to Canada. Where many lives were once lost in the Beaver Wars, and a Department Store once owned half of our country's territory.

I'm American. We couldn't have asked to have a better neighbor to our North.

Just a comment to educate any viewers interested: Micmac is actually spelled Mi'kmaq and is pronounced "Mig-maw". Additionally, us Mi'kmaq traditionally referred to ourselves as L'nu, meaning people of the tongue or language. Our traditional territory of Mi'kma'ki actually covers all of the Atlantic provinces, up to the Gaspe région of Quebec, as well as a portion of Maine.

I’m from Canada, and every time I hear about our history, I never know if I want to route for the English or the French.

As a stateless, Canada welcomed me 30 years ago, and I still feel I won a lottery. A brave and beautiful country not afraid to bring people from all over the world, especially refugees. My wonderful adopted country is a model for the world, I would give my life to protect it’s values.

I was not born in Canada but the life that it made possible for me to create is something I would die and defend for. This is the greatest country in the world.

I'm from the Netherlands and my grandma lived through the second world war. She always told me about our liberation by the Canadians. It led to some of her siblings moving there and she and my mom visited them very often. They even tried to move there themselves. When I was nine, I first went there. A beautiful country, thank you so much for liberating us!

As a Canadien Aboriginal, our country is beautiful. The natural resources here are always fought over and still are today. Not by armies, per say, but big corporations. Being Cree I will always be proud of Canada and gradually how we are trying to reconcile the nations great people. VIVA ABORIGINAL CANDIEN.

Nicely put together in just 10 minutes. As much as my mother and father were born here, I happened to be born in the UK, and never really got a good lesson on the history of Canada. This was very enlightening, and I'm proud to be a citizen of Canada for the last 22 years. I'm amazed the country is only 38m in population, as I would have thought most of the world would want to live in this great country. Thanks for the time and effort you put into this quick history lesson.

"The English and the French did not coexist peacefully." That's a great summary of 90% of Anglo-French relations

Canadians still call it 'The Seven Years' War'. As do the Europeans.

This is a really great video. I wish Epimetheus would do more like it, about many other countries. I'm especially interested in learning how Ancient Rome became modern Italy and, as well, about Ancient to modern Egypt. So little is ever said/written about these types of changes.
