Does anyone know if this is from the Canadian 50 part series?

Craig,

Yes, this appears to be from the Canadian series of the same name. I was able, with some difficulty, to get a Canadian resident to record several, select episodes for me (I would have liked the whole series, but his charge for duplicating was cost prohibitive!), and they seem to match the descriptions on the DVD. Would anyone know if they plan to release more, and, hopefully, all of the 50 episodes on DVD?

Rick
