Christmas In The Canadian Bush Depot Celebration
Lumberjacks in Eastern Canada gather at the Long Lac depot 200 miles northeast of Ottawa for a Christmas Eve celebration. Santa visits camps, gifts are exchanged, Midnight Mass is held, and a long feast followed by dancing completes the night. Christmas Day includes cross cut sawing and snowshoe races before journeys back to camps.
