The Stories That MADE Us is a vibrant journey through the past, present, and future of Canadian storytelling — a portrait of a nation seen through the films and television that have moved us most. Guided by host George Stroumboulopoulos, the series weaves together voices from across the country — stories of laughter, heartbreak, fear, and wonder. Each anecdote is a fragment of something larger: a living narrative revealing the soul of a young nation still defining itself. What is Canadian identity? Maybe it’s impossible to pin down. But in the stories we tell, we begin to see it more clearly. The series traces these threads across decades: the themes that endure, the questions that echo, and the new voices reshaping the conversation. We are at a threshold moment. Canadian storytelling, once overlooked, is now breaking onto the world stage. The Stories That MADE Us is offering a collective reflection on where we’ve been, who we are, and where our stories might take us next.
A century ago, the world experienced a revolution in mobility. Cities like Berlin grew rapidly, with the Graf Zeppelin soaring over the city in 1928, sparking excitement for airship travel. These majestic airships made ocean crossings faster and more luxurious, and even enabled polar expeditions. At the same time, automobiles and motorcycles became staples for many, although streets became congested. Women like Amelia Earhart and Elly Beinhorn broke barriers in aviation, inspiring new possibilities for both genders in the field of technology.
While air travel grew in popularity, trains remained the main long-distance transport. The era also saw an explosion of new mobility options, with faster, cheaper ways to travel across the globe, making the world seem smaller and more connected. However, this golden age of mobility would be cut short by the outbreak of World War II.
