Canada: A People's History is a 17-episode, 32-hour documentary television series on the history of Canada. It first aired on CBC Television from October 2000 to November 2001. The production was an unusually large project for the national network, especially during budget cutbacks. The unexpected success of the series actually led to increased government funding for the CBC. It was also an unusual collaboration with the French arm of the network, which traditionally had autonomous production.

- Canada: A People's History is a 17-episode, 32-hour documentary television series on the history of Canada. It first aired on CBC Television from October 2000 to November 2001. The production was an unusually large project for the national network, especially during budget cutbacks. The unexpected success of the series actually led to increased government funding for the CBC. It was also an unusual collaboration with the French arm of the network, which traditionally had autonomous production. The full run of the episodes was produced in English and French. The series title in French was Le Canada: Une histoire populaire. In 2004, OMNI.1 and OMNI.2 began airing multicultural versions, in Chinese, Greek, Hindi, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, and Russian. The producers intended to make this a dramatic history of the Canadian people; as much as possible, the story was told through the words of the people involved, from great leaders and explorers to everyday people of the land at the time. The documentary makes effective use of visuals, transitions, and dramatic music from or evocative of the eras being covered. In the first season, actors representing historical figures spoke their words, while later seasons used voiceovers over photographic images and film or, when available, original recordings of the subject.
- Le Canada: Une histoire populaire est une série documentaire télévisée en 17 épisodes et 32 heures sur l'histoire du Canada. Elle a été diffusée sur Radio-Canada en octobre 2000 et novembre 2001. La série raconte l'histoire du Canada des Première Nation a nos jours dans un point de vue populaire. Les comédiens incarnent les personnages qui ont fait l'histoire et les gens qui l'ont vécue. La série a vu la collaboration entre la CBC et la SRC, alors que d'ordinaire les artistes francophones et anglophones ne se regroupent pas dans les mêmes projets.
