Kevin McMahon has made many documentaries about water, including The Falls, about Niagara; Stolen Spirits of Haida Gwaii, featuring Haida spirits on a war-canoe journey; An Idea of Canada, which follows Adrienne Clarkson on a tour of Canada’s three ocean coasts; Waterlife, about the Great Lakes; and Standing Wave, a journey with Shad down the Nahanni River. Kevin’s most recent project is the ten-hour epic The Polar Sea, which follows amateur sailors journeying through the melting Northwest Passage.

Trump’s presidency is reshaping Canada. Support Canadian journalism that meets this moment head on.
Donald Trump’s presidency is already reshaping Canada, like it or not. The question is whether we understand what’s coming and whether we’re ready to face it. At The Walrus, we’ve been preparing for months. Earlier this year, we looked at how his tariffs would hit our industries, how his protectionism could destabilize our health care system, and how we might need to start looking to Europe for trade. And now? My team is digging into critical issues like climate policy, Trump’s obsession with annexation, and Canada’s national defence strategy, and more.
This kind of journalism is why The Walrus exists—but it takes time and resources. If you believe our moment calls for deep, rigorous, clear-eyed reporting, then please make a donation today. It’s the one thing you can do to help Canada stay strong, with free-to-all reporting needed during times of crisis. Thank you for your support.
