  The music at 4:10 is by the Mountain City Four, with Kate and Anna McGarrigle.

  This transfer appears to be a little bit squeezed. I don't think the aspect ratio is quite right - you can tell when any people are on screen.

  A delightful Oscar-nominated discovery I am an Expo 67-phile and anything associated with the Canadian Centennial captured on film is a thrilling nostalgic adventure for me. This is a clever, joyous document with a beautifully varied score representing all of Canada's musical traditions, circa 1966. The vibe on this film gathers momentum as it goes and bears witness to a glorious era. Thank for making this available again. I have the one-sheet poster to this and its blandness belies the effervescence of the experience of watching this classic.

The Canadians had come because in 1964, the only support existing camera belonged to Heli-Union for which they worked ...

  Just finished watching 'Helicopter Canada" on the Documentary Channel. Enjoyed every minute, perhaps because the film was produced in 1966, with far less hype than if produced today.
