Propaganda Message
Рет қаралды 55,846
6 жыл бұрынA cartoon film about the whole heterogeneous mixture of Canada and Canadians, and the way the invisible adhesive called federalism makes it all cling together. That the dissenting voices are many is made amply evident, in English and French. But this animated message also shows that Canadians can laugh at themselves and work out their problems objectively.
VIEWER ADVISORY
Produced in collaboration with Information Canada, a branch of what’s now the Department of Foreign Affairs, this sponsored short film is an ad for national unity in Canada. In this satirical view of Canadian society, a series of images and words illustrate various prejudices, serving as a pretext to show that despite their differences, Canadians from all backgrounds form a unified nation thanks to federalism. Today, some of the cultural depictions and language in the film may be considered outdated and offensive.

You know I've always admired how the Canadians can be just as nationalistic and arrogant and proud of their country As Americans but they get away with it and pretend that they aren't.

Nope I'm totally unabashedly proud of my country! You can have gratitude for ur country without arrogance. Arrogance is when you ACTUALLY believe what you have is better than anything n everyone else has... and then also announce to world that u r the most Powerful Nation in the World!! Maybe the loudest. Maybe the flashiest. Definitely the angriest and greedest.

Can't believe the NFB is left-wing as fuck back then, claiming French-English as "racial" fucking sickens me, it's probably one of the most ridiculous propaganda I've come across that tries to make anything non-biological, especially since they ignore the fact that French people and English people are in the same race. No wonder why my delusional feminist sister is so obsessed with these animated short films in the 1990s, because of this one here.. Kind of makes my stomach sore tbh now that I think about it

Either you're ignorant, naive, or a fucking hypocrite. TAH is not only a liar, but the entire movement he advocates would not only built entirely on censorship and violence and the threat of violence. This is not something that deserves ANY platform or respect whatsoever. The funniest things about the entire movement is how they project their own bullshit and claim the other side is the one doing it, that's classic Goebbels right there.

It's meant to poke fun at different view's on what's wrong with the country, and while it does that, it also uses language and imagery that is not okay today. The film, however, was made in the 70's and to change it now would be disingenuous to the original vision, which would also be bad. We can't reflect on the past and why we need change if we go back and censor everything.
