2017 Canadian television documentary film
Canada in a Day is a Canadian television documentary film directed by Trish Dolman, which aired on CTV in 2017.[1] Created to mark the 150th anniversary of Canada in 2017 and inspired by the 2011 film Life in a Day, the film portrayed a snapshot of Canadian life over a period of 24 hours.[1]
In 2016, CTV announced that people across Canada were being invited to film the events of their lives on September 10, 2016.[2] A total of 16,818 videos were received, which were then distilled into a two-hour film by Dolman and editor Nick Hector. Out of all the country-specific Life in a Day sequels that have been released since 2011, Canada in a Day received the third-highest number of submissions behind only Italy in a Day and Spain in a Day.[1]
The film premiered on CTV on June 25, 2017, and was repeated on July 1 on CTV and July 2 on CTV Two.[1]
The film won two Canadian Screen Awards at the 6th Canadian Screen Awards in 2018, for Best Direction in a Documentary Program (Dolman) and Best Editing in a Documentary Program (Hector).[3]
