Escape To Canada[2005]dvdrip[Eng]

Director Albert Nerenberg, the man behind the indie-documentary hit Stupidity, explores these events in the high-energy 'Escape to Canada,' a cleverly crafted, tongue-in-cheek feature. The story begins in 2003, when by apparent coincidence, gay marriage and marijuana are legalized on the same day. Coincidence or trend? Either way, quiet, boring Canada suddenly explodes. Soon Canadians are not the only ones enjoying their newly forged liberties. Citizens from "The Land of the Free" flock across the border to marry their same-sex partners. Others come to smoke marijuana. AWOL U.S. army soldiers arrive to seek refugee status. To many, Canada has become a red-and-white beacon of freedom around the world. Canada, used to being called cold, is suddenly "cool." But within months, Canada re-criminalizes marijuana and there's a new campaign to turn back gay marriage. In his signature no-holds-barred style, Nerenberg reveals a never-before-seen Canada, in an action-packed voyage into freedom Canadian style.
