Hi,
Do you know where i can see the CBC Documentary “Generations: The Chan Legacy”
Thanks, Rob
Hello Rob, during the pandemic, Generations: The Chan Legacy was available for free, on CBC Curios website, but not presently. You can go to the Vancouver Public Library or Toronto Public Library. https://vpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S38C1851249
