#2 Stories That Cross Generations

We left Nova Scotia on a cold Boxing Day, pointed the car west, and began a journey across Canada. It was a modern crossing—heated seats, long highways, music playing through Bluetooth. Comfortable. Safe. Ordinary. And yet, somewhere between the Maritimes and the mountains, the past started speaking. Nova Scotia has always been a place of arrivals. Of ships. Of endings and beginnings. For centuries, it was where immigrants crossed oceans and believed the journey was finished. But for us, it was only the start. This story weaves together a cross-country road trip, a chance encounter in Calgary, and the memory of those who came before us—Scottish Highlanders displaced by the Highland Clearances, families forced from their land and carried across the Atlantic to a new, unforgiving world. A world where: • loyalty meant everything • survival demanded silence • and lineage carried more weight than comfort Inspired by No Great Mischief by Alistair MacLeod, this video reflects on exile, endurance, and the quiet gratitude that comes from realizing how different our journey was from those who came before us. From Pier 21 to the Prairies. From sod houses to apartments with heat. From then to now. Canada is built on crossings like these. If you’ve ever moved far from home, felt the pull of where you came from, or wondered about the stories beneath your own—this one’s for you.
