PURGED IN THE CAPITAL
\nIn the 1950s and 60s, the RCMP went to great lengths to prevent the Soviet Union from stealing national secrets. \u201cPurged in the Capital\u201d follows the story of John Wendell Holmes, an employee of the Department of External Affairs who finds himself swept up in a flurry of government fear and paranoia.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deanne Pittman, Matt Allen, Priscilla Hwang & Mark Gorokhovski<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WILL TO SURVIVE<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frank Cauley, an Ottawa World War Two veteran’s story. From his journey of signing up and going to war, and his will to survive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jessy El-Saikali, Erica Foster<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NO ROAD HOME
\nDuring the 1950\u2019s the St. Lawrence Seaway Hydro project was created to modernize Canadian hydropower and to stimulate Canadian economic growth. The development of the river resulted in the loss of long standing communities that were either destroyed or removed to allow the construction of the seaway. \u201cNo Road Home\u201d tells the story of the Canadians living directly in the path of the construction and the tremendous impact it had on their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rebecca Sykes, Jennifer Bate & Stephanie Desjardins<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ELEANOR
\nEleanor Milne was an artist through and through. In her decades-long career, she worked in sculpture, stained glass, painting, drawing – indeed, nearly any medium she could get her skilled hands upon. For 30 years she held the position of Dominion Sculptor, leading a team of carvers to produce some of the most memorable carvings on Parliament Hill. Despite personal struggles, Milne’s whole life was dedicated to her craft; “Eleanor” gives a glimpse into the life and work of an artist whose hand both illustrated and changed the history of Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
