The Cold Walk Home
Produced by: Robert Carty
Chances are you've encountered a drunken man, staggering around in the streets. Occasionally, the local police may take the louder ones to the station, clap them in the drunk tank, and do the paperwork. Unofficially, there's the "midnight ride" or the "starlight tour", as they call it in Saskatoon. Drive the guy to the outskirts of town and leave him to find his way back. When two men were found frozen to death on a winter's night, two years ago, it opened an investigation and divided a town. CBC producer Bob Carty reports from Saskatoon

Program Credits

The Cold Walk Home was produced by Robert Carty of the CBC. The editor was Margaret Daly. This program orginally aired as part of the ongoing international documentary exchange series Crossing Boundaries.
