An article on the CBC webpage is reporting the discovery of
a rare colour film from 1939 recording the royal visit of King
George VI and Queen Elizabeth to Winnipeg.
It remains a mystery who took the footage at a time when
colour recording was just becoming commercially available.

It is interesting to note that First Nations and Chinese were
both present in the parade. Republicans often like to
characterize the Royal Family as being of limited interest to
those who are not Anglo-Saxon. This video is yet another
example of how that just isn't the case.
