    What a big waste of time and money

    Don't bother watching this badly scripted FICTION, Too many omissions and inaccurate "history." Should have been titled "Canada: The Story of THEM" instead. This is by far a big waste of tax payers' money and time. May I suggest, CBC, next time you want to make a documentary on Canadian history you should hire real historians and forget the reality shows pseudo-experts.

    The Story of Somebody?

    I too was disappointed by this series. I found there was a lot of emphasis on the indigenous peoples, but not on contributions from other groups, like the Scots, Irish, Japanese, Germans, and even the Americans that had profound influences on our nation and the ways in which it developed. Even the French (aside from Champlain and the FLQ) had only occasional mention. It seems to me that the makers of this series placed a higher value on style, rather than substance.

    Not as bad as everyone says

    I think it was enjoying to watch and I hope we get another series because they missed very important cultures and nations that also made Canada what it is. What I saw I enjoyed, but it is missing enough to make another series! If it's the story of us, let's not leave anyone or anything else out!

    History showed from the perspective of an ignorant person...

    The only people who will give this a good rating, will be from Ontario. 😄 Canada is a beautiful country, with a rich history. I feel sorry for the people that needs to highlight the English army has clean and the rest has dirty... It only shows a lack of respect others...

    My Canada is better than this...

    Do NOT waste your time on this one

    As a teacher of Canadian history, I often use "Canada: a People's History" to supplement my lessons. I was hoping this would be another useful resource to use in my class. Boy, was a wrong! "Canada: The Story of Us" is shallow, badly written, filled with inaccuracies, and leaves huge gaps in our history. TV celebrities and sports figures stating such gems as, "the Rockies are huge. Really, really big" replace historians who actually know something about our history. Anglophone actors mispronounce their French lines. Platitudes fill every episode. We were so excited about this coming out for the 150th. We sat down to watch it and within 10 minutes, we knew it was a bomb. This is SO bad on SO many levels. DO NOT WATCH.
