I have written a bit about Canadian foreign policy over the past few years. The big piece I wrote and built on since, I called “Canada for anti-imperialists”. That was about four years ago now. Since then, I learned two things.
1) Films can reach audiences that written articles can’t, and
2) I have absolutely no skill, ability, aptitude, or enjoyment in filmmaking
Luckily for me, others do!

Myths for Profit is shaping up to be an excellent exploration of the difference between perception and reality of Canadian foreign policy. Like anything that touches a national myth, it is not attracting huge amounts of mainstream funding, despite being original, insightful, and skillfully done. The filmmakers are looking for people to pre-pay for copies of it to help them fund the effort. Their site is Wide open exposure and you can pre-order the film there.
