We are forever indebted to the Canadians for not only their kindness on that day, but every other time they have refuged and assisted us Americans. Everytime I watch it I always get the urge to get a Canadian flag. With love, The American People.

The Canadians have always been know for their bravery. They were the fiercest soldiers in 2 World Wars and this incident was no exception

Beautiful comment thank you so much my fellow brother ❤❤

[@thatmusicalkid1244]

Yes I agree

What is so amazing is that to this day Claude Elliot is still the mayor of gander! I wish they talked about him more in the show

I like the reaction of the actor who played Oz Fudge, when the real Oz Fudge mentioned how his mother--who had Alzheimer's--gave up her bed:)

I watched this IN GANDER! When I was on vacation!! It’s was amazing such an amazing show and how kind they were to let our people in, and thanks to all of our firefighters who died saving people.

Now we are in 2021 all I can say is no matter what our politicians say or what today’s media might tell us Americans and Canadians are family and nothing will ever change it

This play was workshopped and produced at Sheridan College, in Oakville Ontario, near Toronto, before it went to Gander.
