This is a must-see video. I highly highly recommend it.
From the web site:
"From its extraction through sale, use and disposal, all the stuff in our lives affects communities at home and abroad, yet most of this is hidden from view. The Story of Stuff is a 20-minute, fast-paced, fact-filled look at the underside of our production and consumption patterns. The Story of Stuff exposes the connections between a huge number of environmental and social issues, and calls us together to create a more sustainable and just world"

Phenomenon
It seems like this video is going to be a phenomenon, and it should be. It's a fine piece of work.
Apparently someone who helped make it is from Thunder Bay.
That's what I saw in a Facebook group (http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=20762505888) about the video anyway (where someone has identified themself as the creator).
