The Great Northern Candy Drop

The Great Northern Candy Drop is based on a book published by the Canada Aviation and Space Museum that offers insight into the community of northern Quebec. In this animated holiday special, pilot Johnny May has flown over Kuujjuaq during the holiday season for 50 years, dropping candy and other goodies for kids living in the region. He faces the biggest challenge of his long flying career when his annual Christmas candy drop fly-over is threatened by the meddling of a safety-obsessed government bureaucrat from the south who has the authority to ground him forever.
