Every winter, ice roads are built across hundreds of miles in Canada's far north, connecting frozen rivers and lakes, and stretching up to the very northern tip of the country by the Arctic Ocean. For the people living in the remote villages of this region these “ice highways” are of vital importance. Until April, trucks are coming up here all the way from down south, bringing supply goods for the whole year to these locals, and life changes until the ice roads are melting again and disappearing into the ocean.

Friends All these calamities that are going on around the world is going to lead to a Sunday law which will be the MARK of The BEAST, Those that keep God's seventh day sabbath will be persecuted and prohibited from buying and selling, Jesus is coming soon.
In March 2016, I travelled from Victoria, British Columbia all the way to Tuktoyaktuk just so I could say I drove the ice road and walked on the Arctic Ocean before the government extended the Dempster Hwy. It was an 8,500km, 10-day round trip and a day of that was being stuck in Eagle Plains due to a blizzard. It was a fantastic experience and this documentary brought back a flood of memories.
I love it how people in these more remote places seem to appreciate the simpler things in life. They take competitions seriously and take traditions seriously just to name a couple. Food is seen as a necessity and gift rather than a luxury choice or a chore.
My son (who is 8 years old) and I we enjoy this documentaries very much. He is always wondering and asking me who is behind filming them and hope one day he see the behind the scene. Thank you!!!
I drove from KY to Tuk in summer 2022. I loved the experience and the locals were so friendly and welcoming. Great memories. So glad I overcame fear of solo traveling at 78.
Good on you!! My 80 y/o brother in law just drove from Canada to Daytona/New Orleans and back towing a travel trailer by himself. The worst part he said was being tailgated by others most of the time even if he drove the speed limit. So many taking useless risk to save a couple minutes. Too many people on drugs inconsiderate of other road users. I’ll tell him to visit the Yukon next time. Thanks.
Living in Canada has given me a deep respect for truck drivers. At first, I thought it was simply a good-paying job, but over time, I realized just how challenging and relentless it is. These drivers aren’t just out there on sunny summer days; they’re battling snowstorms, icy roads, and long, lonely stretches of highway year-round. I’ve watched them make unbelievable maneuvers, threading massive B Trains through impossibly tight spaces with skill and patience. No matter where they’re from, they’re the backbone of our world, keeping everything moving day after day. A heartfelt thank you to these unsung heroes who sacrifice so much to keep our lives running smoothly.
Amazing country and people! My late husband used to work up north by the McKenzie River and show us pictures but to watch this documentaries made it complete . Thank you so much for the incredible documentation of the people’s lives and the North…
I marvel at the good spirits everyone seems to be in, in spite of the extremely harsh conditions. I, for one, have a lot to learn from these brave people!
This is an excellent documentary about the Northern Ice Roads, the people of the Northern Territory’s called NWT. I travelled this part of the world in my earlier years and the beauty will always stay with me even at minus 45 below. I was lucky enough to be on the Dempster Highway when they were building it and the country was beyond spectacular1
Absolutely fascinating. A look into the lives of others in Canada that I have never seen and likely never will. Thanks to those people and the ones that presented this. You"re a tough bunch to be sure.
I love ice road truckers!! I miss it! I would watch it over and over again if I could! I respect the truckers putting their lives on the line to get supplies up there.
I had the pleasure of meeting Alex (the preacher) in the Vancouver Airport, he was traveling with his son!! NICEST GUY, dropped all his luggage to pose for pics and autographs, he actually made me feel like we were long time friends! He might be called The Preacher, but he's a SAINT in my books for what he does for Northern Canada's people!! 🙏😇 😎
I spent about 10 years on the DEWLINE of which one month was spent at Tuktoyaktuk in the mid 90's. It was nice to go to the store's and see regular people as opposed to just 11 people on a regular DEW site. The Arctic could be harsh in the middle of winter with cold temperatures and lots of darkness but summer brought an oasis of life. As I look back I worked with some very interesting people who came together to live and work together. As a young guy at the time only 18 I loved the years I spent in the high Arctic
Love those hunters living off the land keeping tradition alive for those smart enough to carry on instead of relying on technology, which WILL fail at some point
I'm surprized that I recognize a lot of the scenery from the computer game "18 Wheels of Steel". Even the dome shaped church is in there, the frozen-in boats outside Inuvik, to town itself and the new all year gravel road. Great docu!
crazy to think that Manatoulin Transport comes as far south to Toronto, THATS a freaking long drive, ive met few Innuits from Tuk at the Petro-Canada fuel depot, really coo to hear there stories :)
Done a lot of trips to the north of Finland,Norway and Russia. Also in the winter,but this is a another world.More brutal,bad roads and the longer distances between the villages. Here is nature king and the human his servents. Respect for all of those who live there.
According to Wikipedia the Canada Tuktoyaktuk Winter Road is now permanently closed and now is replaced by the Inuvik-Tuktoyaktuk Highway . Fascinating documentary .
What an amazing story. Thank you for sharing in such an informative style. I grew up hearing about the ice highways, but so nice to see and hear about the people.
Damn...never seen this side of canada. I mean i know it is a huge country with respect to area and it snows a lot in almost every city but not this vast land of white snow. It is a completely different world. Secondly, i love how the people there observe and grateful for even simple things in life. From Pakistan.
These are actually decent roads in the documentary wide and well maintained. North after the Yellowknife turnout towards and past Simpson is the terrible drive of the NWT if ever up for unnerving challenges.
Oh, such an enlightening documentsry ! I live in the West Indies, where air conditioning is a must at times ! Almost every day you see the sun, and light clothes are necessary ! Respect. Trinidad & tobago.
I spent a lot of time in this area (Tuk, Inuvik, Norman Wells) in the 90s, working pipelines and scientific research. Love the place, and I miss it madly.
Lived in Inuvik for 2 years in the late 80’s. Drove the ice roads to Tuk and Aklavik for work with NWT Power. Managed to get my family up the iceroad to Tuk once, they enjoyed to trip up the Mackenzie river and got to see the pingo’s.
I live in BC and a friend of ours is a trucker. He had an opportunity to drive these roads, but his wife absolutely forbade it. Their kids ( and ours ) were young at the time and she didn’t want to end up a widow.

They are from France, it's a TV show documentary like netgeo, and this TH-cam buy the copyright fromthem and upload it on their channel.
@@aashishkc4078 thanks for the information.
@@aashishkc4078 In the credits it says Munich and all the names are German.
@@DR-po4ib but they are from France trust me I used to watch this documentary on tv

I never comment on TH-cam videos but that is awesome! I would love to do something like that one day.
We lived in inuvik for 17 years. Travelled the ice roads for all those years. Beautiful, we do miss the arctic!!
Where did you relocate to? The tropics of Toronto?
Where are you living now??

I just drove the Dempster Highway August 2023. New Jersey to Tuktoyaktuk and back!
Perfect content for a sunday ❤️
Check out the channel and you will feel a whole lot better 😀😀
My favourite channel on TH-cam.
Glad to see this get posted, these dangerous roads/journeys are definitely my favorite 👍😀
A lovely Sunday having to watch something new from FD Channel.
Thank you and keep these documentaries coming.
Much love from Kenya 🇰🇪👏
Thank you 🙏 oh and we will. Lots more coming!
jambo mkenya mwenza. am watching from China.
Would love to go there one day. Listening to the stories and watching the people live together..... amazing. thanks for posting.
Reminded me when I was a kid in elementary school they would teach us history of Canada, now nobody talks about it. Best one yet
Modern day history is not about Canada but black history! The real history is forgotten.
@@majie1018 nothing wrong with black history, they both need to be taught
Who ever narrated this video is a damn good story teller...
Loved Ice Road Truckers when it first started. Take me back to that time lol
i've watched this a lot too

thanks for taking us to the Ice world.
sunday chill day, and boom this pops up, what a bonus...
I drove that road many times when I was younger and trucking back in 2000 2001 to 2004 2005
Interesting to know more about other parts of the world. I'm from Namibia 🇳🇦, Africa.
According to Wikipedia the Canada Tuktoyaktuk Winter Road is now permanently closed and now is replaced by the Inuvik-Tuktoyaktuk Highway . Fascinating documentary .
Very very interesting as always, thanks for uploading all of these series
Narrator, you have a beautiful voice and wonderful story teller. I love to visit with you... Hello from Indiana USA
Thanks for posting this, I love documentaries like this :)
What an amazing story. Thank you for sharing in such an informative style. I grew up hearing about the ice highways, but so nice to see and hear about the people.
I simply love remote villages.
THESE are men and women. Such a great video. Much respect for people living and working in these conditions.
This is my favorite video from your channel! Loved all the content featured and the people interviewed!
The ice road from Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk closed for the last time in 2017. There is now an all-weather gravel road between the two.
Yes, but free documentary always put up out of date documentaries, pretty much all of them
@@aureliaandris8240 its free and its entertaining. stop hating
@@tupacshakur97 Tupac! Sure man
Sad that they didn’t keep for nostalgia
Nice something good to watch on this Sunday. Thanks.

This was a very nice documentary . It’s a little toooo cold for me but it looks very peaceful. I liked the sign that said Arctic circle 2 KM .
My bucket list--- to visit Canada -- from South Africa
Damn...never seen this side of canada.
I mean i know it is a huge country with respect to area and it snows a lot in almost every city but not this vast land of white snow. It is a completely different world.
Secondly, i love how the people there observe and grateful for even simple things in life.
From Pakistan.
Not much different than on another frozen planet....
Great land scape great kind people. Wonderful interviews.
Cool seeing Manitoulin Transports on this episode. I work for Manitoulin Transport.
Thank you for the product much enjoyed!
These are actually decent roads in the documentary wide and well maintained. North after the Yellowknife turnout towards and past Simpson is the terrible drive of the NWT if ever up for unnerving challenges.
Nothing but good things here 👍👏👏👏👏
Thanks for free documentary
Thank you and thanks to you guys. We go well together don’t you think? :)
I have an ecletic taste in YT, but this is one of the best. Subscribed.

Oooo exotic place, nice. For some reason I always say Trinidad and Tabacco
Wow what an incredible film
I love this channel.. it teaches
Yep. 😀
I spent a lot of time in this area (Tuk, Inuvik, Norman Wells) in the 90s, working pipelines and scientific research. Love the place, and I miss it madly.
Truly, Filipinos r everywhere!! ❤️🇵🇭🇵🇭
Such a beautiful place with amazing traditions and culture. I'd love to visit.
You should
Very good video.....!
Amazed to see this video posted we're envy to what you have encountered in your country... I just say woow from🇰🇼
Thank you FD♥️from 🇱🇰🇱🇰☺️😍

Much happier to watch this show, than ICE ROAD TRUCKERS, a soap opera in trucks......
Nicely done and great story about NWT in Canada 🇨🇦,
I live in BC and a friend of ours is a trucker. He had an opportunity to drive these roads, but his wife absolutely forbade it. Their kids ( and ours ) were young at the time and she didn’t want to end up a widow.
why?
Awesome! Regards from New Zealand.
Thanks so much, I truly loved it and learned much more than I did previously!
I love this channel you guys do a great job I watch all the episodes thanks for what you do I really appreciate it
In fact, it is a good video about the geography and weather of the area.
Very informative
Nice ones
Great video, love the Inuvik church...💖👍
Living at the 'EDGE of the world", love this .
Even the edge of the world is happier than the middle....
It's a shame dog sleds are becoming rare because I think I just saw the happiest dogs on the planet.
An excellent documentary, thanks!
Best dokumentary.. Hi.. From kedah malaysia🙋♂️🇲🇾
the Dempster Highway is spectacular
💯let’s go freedom convoy. 🇨🇦
Seeing my own country through foreign eyes is always educational. What for us seems normal and utilitarian is seen as rare and exotic to outsiders.
Beautiful documentary keep it up enjoyed watching thanks
You guys do a great job
Wonderful country to live and experienced all nature's Wonder...
Nice Job 👌
