She will visit her orphanage, learn more about her past and what that city is like today, all the while creating an unforgettable story of lives reconnected.

Watchers of the North
- Broadcaster: APTN
- 6 x 30 min. documentary series
Watchers of the North follows an eclectic collection of military reservists known as the Canadian Rangers. Armed with the WWII-era Lee Enfield rifle, the only weapon that works reliably in the frigid Arctic, these Canadian Rangers are officially the military's 'eyes and ears' of the North across 163 remote coastal communities. Watchers of the North takes viewers on duty as the Rangers rescue lost hunters, track downed planes, teach Canadian Armed Forces personnel how to survive in the extreme north all the while passing on First Nations and Inuit traditions to the younger comers. The Rangers' compelling on-duty and off-duty lives will unfold in stories that portray the complexities and challenges of life across the Canadian North.
