A National Film Board survey shows teachers frequently use Canadian made films in classes, even as educational libraries hold most materials from the United States. The study notes 65 percent of films used were Canadian, while 66 percent of 16mm holdings came from abroad, mainly the US, with expectation of shifting as usage mirrors holdings.

What Not to Bring Home From Holidays
Canada enforces strict Plant Protection rules at airports and ports to stop pests and diseases. Inspectors confiscate items like soil, fresh produce, and nursery stock unless proper permits and country certifications are shown. Officials warn soil is the main risk and soil bans limit travel with potted plants and contaminated footwear.
