The
Coalition for the Preservation of Memories of the Motherland ™ proudly presents Canada's longest running series of public service announcements -
Hinterland Who's Who!
Once again, you can be lulled into a frenzy for nature by the distinctive flute refrain and deadpan narration of John Livingston in these clips from the
Hinterland Who's Who video and sound clip library.
In 2003, Environment Canada resurrected production of the series and began producing two versions - one, similar to the original 1960s public service ads; and another, marketed towards a younger audience. Those clips can be found in the library as well. Also be sure to check out the section on spoofs, particularly TSN's
Granite Land Who's Who!
Fans of, the now defunct,
Double Exposure can listen to a clip of
Political Hinterland Who's Who in Real Audio from
The Current's website. Just
download the clip here and fast forward it to the 26 minute mark to hear about the 1993 federal election in which Canada's Red-Faced Tories were reduced to a single mating pair.
Tip o' the toque to Alex.
