==Attraction History==
When working on a movie for the Canada pavilion, Disney Imagineers decided that they wanted to use Circle Vision 360 to film the various Canadian landscapes. The Circle Vision 360 format was chosen, because the scope of the scenes (especially the Canadian wilderness) was so broad. After researching the country, Imagineers went to Canada and filmed for almost two years, capturing scenes in all twelve of Canada's provinces and territories. After filming was complete, Disney had shot over 250,000 feet of film, which was then edited down to an 18 minute movie. Finally, the film opened as O’ Canada with the rest of the Canada pavilion on October 1, 1982.

Although initially hesitant, Disney finally updated the film in 2007. On August 6, 2007, the original O’Canada O’ Canada closed. Although Disney did not announce the reason for its closure, when the attraction reopened on September 1, it had in fact received an update. The new version of O' Canada features a combination of old and new footage, as well as a new narration by comedian Martin Short. The attraction's popular theme song, "Canada - You're a Lifetime Journey" was also rerecorded by Canadian sing Eva Avila, who won the singing completion Canadian Idol. The current version of O'Canada has been shortened to 14 minutes long.
