"The city is like Niagara Falls. The closer you live to the brink, the more likely you will be swept over the edge. We like to live a long way upstream.' The old Mennonite communities of Canada are descendants of European Protestants who fled from terrible persecution in the 17th and 18th centuries. They have retained a separate identity, avoiding the modem world and preserving a 200-year-old way of life. But at the fringes compromises are being made. Everyman visits the farming communities where the old values of peace, humility, hard work and brotherhood are still the priority. What happens when the modern world gets too close? 'There's lots of room, we just move a little further out.'
