Well, I almost said some more in my post above but the movie is good and I highly recommend it simply for the reasons I stated.

As far as Mowatt is concerned, my uncle worked at a NWT weather station not far from him when he was there. My uncle had very little good to say about him and considered most of his writings bullshit and written for the sole purpose of making a buck. That is the same opinion held by a lot of Atlantic Canadians in regard to his bullshit with the seals and that Neffie whale.

He came within an inch of being lynched in PEI and da Newfies ain't too fond a im needer eh.

But, if ya get a chance to see the movie, go for it. "Good idea." >;-)
