The documentary Hudson Bay(bies) is essential viewing for anyone interested in uncovering lesser-known aspects of Canadian history. It focuses on a time when HBC workers formed relationships with women from various villages, leading to the birth of numerous children. These unions and their resulting families have often been overlooked in traditional accounts of Canadian history. Elisapie, whose father hailed from Newfoundland and worked for the HBC, is uniquely positioned to explore the stories of these children. Her personal connection brings authenticity and depth to the narrative, allowing viewers to truly understand the experiences of those born from these unions.
