About the film
A fact-led search for answers
Broken Country breaks down the issues Canadians face, and answers their questions with clear, digestible information. Stats, interviews, case stories and history, told with energy.
It promotes no party and no agenda. In every subject it asks three things: what is happening now, when did it last work, and which policies threw it off course.
