I would love to see Saskatchewan's sand dunes someday.

it's easier to get to the ones in the south, nearer to the US border. The Great Sand Hills

Not in this part

Dang. Sandy desert in northern Canada? Who knew?

[@integralintervention6323]

I'm from Southern Ontario, and I moved to the Sask/Alberta border. I was blown away when I seen all these sand dunes and countless saltwater lakes slewn across the prairies. And to top it all off, dinosaur bones. I never heard of any of this in my 31 years in Ontario.

Don't like the soundtrack...banjo like this is definitely not part of any heritage music of northern Saskatchewan. Sounds more like americanised blue- grass type music ( which is ok, but) an update to this film is in order!
