The short concerns Tshiuetin Rail Transportation, which has a line running from Labrador to Schefferville, Quebec that came under the control of a First Nations group in December 2005, an unprecedented situation in the history of Canada. Aboriginal groups have been proud of owning the line, with the documentary attempting to convey why the line is significant.[1]

gollark: Not all of it.
gollark: Standard Notes? They have the beeoidal subscription model thing and accursed amounts of JS. Just use Minoteaur.
