While those things are Canadian to the core, one part of Canada that most people overlook is the TV shows. Canada has some of the best TV shows out there. Fans from across the world enjoy watching Canadian TV shows. No matter what type of show you want to find, Canada has something for you. From older Western shows to sitcoms, here are a few that capture life in Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-anne-of-green-gables\">Anne of Green Gables<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>L.M. Montgomery\u2019s Anne of Green Gables is one of the iconic Canadian books. It is no surprise that since the book was published in 1908, multiple film adaptations have popped up. Many adaptations have captured the heart-warming tale entertainingly while staying true to the novel.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there is one adaptation that stands out. The 1985 adaptation of Anne of Green Gables has captured the hearts of millions of Canadians and is cherished by fans around the world. It perfectly captures life in Prince Edward Island during the early 1900s. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The TV show is about the life of a 12-year-old orphan named Anne who is adopted by two elderly siblings, Matthew and Marilla. The ageing siblings wanted a young boy to help out on their farm, but instead received a girl, Anne. Marill and Matthew did not welcome Anne at first because she wasn\u2019t a boy. However, she manages to win the hearts of her adoptive guardians and eventually the people of her town, Avonlea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The series is available on a streaming service called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gazebotv.com\/products\/anne-of-green-gables-complete-collection\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GazeboTV<\/a>. Another option is to check out your local public library. Since it is such a popular show, you will likely find the title in your local library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube aligncenter wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Anne of Green Gables- Official Trailer\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/31aZ8pOMhlc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Check out the trailer for this iconic Canadian TV show.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-learn-about-canadian-history-through-tv-shows-frontier\">Learn About Canadian History Through TV Shows: Frontier <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The Canadian TV show, \u201cFrontier\u201d, brings attention to a part of Canadian history that is usually overlooked. The show brings the audience back to the North American fur trade and the powerful Hudson\u2019s Bay Company. It follows the thrilling adventures of the rebellious Declan Harp. Declan Harp was an employee at the Hudson\u2019s Bay Company before he became an outlaw. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Join Declan as he undertakes his quest for revenge against the very company he used to work for.
