The Kings Mutual Insurance Company 1904-2004: 100 Years of Neighbour Helping Neighbour: My dad was in town on business, and he brought us a bunch of stuff that his company had made to celebrate its centennial, including this video produced by Annapolis Valley Audio Visual. It really impressed me; I had to keep reminding myself that it wasn't a big-budget production.

There were plenty of new clippings, funny anecdotes and interviews, and, my favourite part, footage of the Canadian Forces in the First and Second World Wars. They even had copies of the original documents drawn up by the farmers who were tired paying commercial insurance rates. Reading blogs at work? Click to escape to a suitable site!
