Les minutes du patrimoine

The Heritage Minutes are short dramatic vignettes featuring significant events in Canadian history. These short 60-second episodes commemorate great Canadians and examples of perseverance and bravery.

The series aims to entertain and educate the public, while encouraging them to research and reflect on our country’s past. These documentaries allow students to deepen their knowledge primarily in social studies, history and Canadian and world studies. The episodes of this series would be very effective as a primer or simply as oral debates to encourage critical thinking in relation to the various topics discussed.

As a transferable skill, communication and global citizenship are present in all episodes to foster understanding of various global perspectives.
