Canada and the Cold War

Posted by & filed under Other / Canada.

I was brows­ing through the CBC Dig­i­tal Archives this morn­ing like a good Cana­dian nerd should, and I came across some­thing a lit­tle bit big­ger than myself: the atomic bomb.

Cold War Cul­ture: The Nuclear Fear of the 1950’s and 1960’s offers a great sam­pling of orig­i­nal CBC pro­gram­ming from half a cen­tury past, all of it detail­ing the Cana­dian reac­tion and hap­pen­ings sur­round­ing an event that cast a shadow across the world for more than 50 years, all of it for free.

    Maybe the writer needs another blog, for world events. I’d also pre­fer the blog be on-topic.

    Um, Jim just gave us a link to FREE stuff in this post. Try read­ing it.

    I agree… these posts are often infor­ma­tive and inter­est­ing, but they are not in line with the web­site. I think he should set up his own blog, leave the address and those who would like to read it can fol­low him there.

    Once again, if it doesn’t inter­est you, don’t read it. Just scroll on down. Not a dif­fi­cult thing to do– just a lit­tle motion with the fin­ger.
    Some of us are here for more than just free­bies. It’s called SMART canucks… because we want to get smarter.
    Thank you Jim.
