National Film Board of Canada

http://www3.nfb.ca/

For 70 years, the National Film Board of Canada has been breaking ground in socially-engaged documentary, auteur animation, alternative drama and more!

Thanks to Chris, I already knew about it but we were not able to find the full versions of the movies through the National Film Board and we were trying to find them on YouTube. They are so good!

For example, look for:
Log Drivers Waltz - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ekqsHP9Sck
The Big Snit - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90SIuISIVB8
The Cat Came Back - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bETCusT5kNM
and so on

I stand corrected. Julie Matlin has left a comment to indicate that the National Film Board has a published repository. Please have a look:
You can find tons of NFB films, both classics and new releases, at http://www.nfb.ca. All free and available for viewing online.

You can find the films you mentioned in your post through the following links:
Log Driver's Waltz: http://www.nfb.ca/film/log_drivers_waltz/
The Bit Snit: http://www.nfb.ca/film/big_snit/
The Cat Came Back: http://www.nfb.ca/film/the-cat-came-back/

Thank you Julie.

Pretty cool! Thank you so much : ))

The Canadian National Film Board has great productions. I hope that more people and more people become aware of it. Much appreciated!
