Does anyone remember the title of a CBC special that lasted over about 4 nights and came out during the 2007 commemoration of Vimy? It starred actual descendants of WWI combat vets who played their forefathers and commented on them. They wore period uniforms and carried correct weapons, instructed by British Army soldiers who provided a tough edge. I should have purchased it at the time!

Many thanks,

Justin Trudeau plays Canadian war hero, Talbot Papineau :rolleyes:

I was exceptionally offended at that also. I have yet to see anyone named Trudeau that has the moral integrity and ethics to wear a Patricia uniform! A blight on the Regiments name, to say the least. Just my $.02 worth.
 
Not all people named Trudeau are related to the communist. Does make you wonder why this one thinks he's qualified to be PM though. Have to agree with him being an insult to the Pats, considering his never having worn a uniform and his daddy being a Zombie during W.W. II.
