Just wondering if you are able to watch the CBC's 'Meltdown'
documentaries? I've just watched bits of them, but they seem very well done in explaining how the whole global economy has been affected. Depressing, but interesting.

1. Yes. Looking forward to part 4 tonight. See govts cower when facing angry labor unions.

Hint: It's NOT in the good ol' USA.

This CBC documentary will never air in this country.

Five stars.

2. CENSORED
"We're sorry the video you've selected cannot be streamed outside of Canada."

3. Can not view outside Canada.
Everytime I want to see a film from the CBC that is the message I get.

4. Couldn't a proxy server be used to view the video?
I'm not at all sure how to go about using one, but isn't this pretty much what they're for?

7. I'm not sure. That sucks that it's censored. The CBC usually does
a really good job of investigating for all their documentaries, it's really too bad the viewing is limited.
