"And the banks seem just as prolific." Ominous words

[@miarrem]

Wow, the fishing sure has changed

[@Trigger200284]

I was really surprised to hear that the Northumberland Straight was where the lobsters were most abundant... I'm from Cumberland county where that straight is, lobster fishing sure ain't what it used to be from what I just watched.

Hey, any possibility to use this footage to make a documentary on Nova Scotia for KZbin?

Nova Scotia is not like this anymore 😢 sad it's gone

[@andrewwilliams1874]

Really? Guess it is all a matter of one's outlook on life. I was actually marveling at how much times change, but so much of what we were doing back in '49 was still being done and enjoyed today. Unless of course you were referring to the obvious - and routine for that time - 'whitewashing' of the population in NS during those times, as one might believe as portrayed on the film? Great part of being Nova Scotian, and Canadian... or fortunate to be living here... nobody is forcing anyone to stay or live someplace that doesn't suit yer fancy! 😉

Ummmmm, it's nice and all, but where are all the condos and airbnbs? And WHY are those people allowed near the water? Didn't they have the German and Torontonian overlords that we have today, barring all passage to beaches/ waterfrontage? Despicable!

[@rvhtravels]

Seems if there is little left to exploit now, but it likely won't stop till there is nothing left.😢

[@migjager7352]

Looks like paradise on earth. Too bad it all had to be deconstructed, demoralized, demolished and deluged with Kalergi Kidz...

[@croweddy]

and now the fish are gone.....enough said

[@Trigger200284]

gone is an understatement.... The trout are almost completely gone in the southwest, salmon have been gone for decades, the salmon are almost all gone in the north end of the province, the tuna are like ghosts now, lobster fishing is on the way to collapsing, cod fishery is gone, the mackrel are endangered, same as haddock, herring, smelt used to be so thick in the rivers you could walk on them, now there's barely any.... The rivers are being overrun with small mouth and pickerel in the southwest as well... I was born in the early 80's and still had the chance to witness when things were great, it's all dickered now.

Poor PEI left out of the map, yet again!

[@eckosters]

Ok, this is a decades old promotional film and yes, it’s interesting to see how much has changed but what it really needs at the start is an apology regarding the complete disregard for the fact that this is Mi’qMa’ki, whose original inhabitants arrived and settled here about 13,000 years ago.

[@Trigger200284]

Moan moan moan. wah wah wah. It was 1949, were they really going to show half cut indians out of it in Parsborro to promote vacationing in Nova Scotia?

@@SteveConrad-l9j this is what the schools teach them now. They start every day with a PA announcement letting the children know they should be guilty about living on “their” land.

[@thatstheguy07]

Every place on earth had some original inhabitants, and then some other ppl showed up and took it. That’s human history. That’s how it is. The strongest survive. Ppl got conquered, land took. Just like all humans were slaves at some point, not just blacks. Time to move on

Where’s the diversity, the inclusion? How did the obtain puberty blockers for trans-kiddies?! What about the LGBTQE+2 community and their preferred pronouns? No tax on all that carbon, either?! How things have changed!

bro we have bigger problems than people living their lives how they want, you sound allergic to freedom

[@reekinronald6776]

Amazing how they seemed to live a good life without all those diversity things and the need to keep the GDP ever growing.....for forty years we have had the mantra, "we need more people!, we need more people!"....they seemed to do fine without "more people".

[@NickolaiPetrovitch]

Jesus, can they put people like you in one place please . You’ll all be happy because you can whine about things together you see on the news or hear from your kids/grandkids you don’t understand (before they stop visiting.)

[@Skoozi]

They talked about how diverse an area NS was, or were you too busy typing nonsense down here to hear it? They also talked about pulling 40 tuna out of the water in a day and how you could fish the grand banks endlessly without it having an effect on the cod... How things have changed. In hindsight perhaps doing things differently than what was deemed appropriate in the 40's is a good thing.

[@andrewwilliams1874]

Thankfully we didn't live in a society over populated with idiots that'd ever bring up such ridiculousness, and try to make such orchestrated outrage an issue in 1949. Nor did we offer such people a virtual public soapbox upon which to spread their hateful divisiveness to the masses... back in the "Good Ol Days". It isn't a mystery there Angela Lansbury...
