We see people plow with oxen, spin and weave at home on hand wheels and looms, make all their own clothing and provide practically all their own food. It also shows the religious fervor of these people as well as their different forms of entertainment. "This film is excellent material for classes studying Canada and might be used in Eco- nomic classes as an example of self-sustaining people who are not really interdependent. Ex- cellent film."
