Ice Road Truckers

Ice Road Truckers
I have to admit I’m addicted to the reality show, “Ice Road Truckers,” which premiered June 17 on The History Channel (Sundays, 10 ET/PT). For those who haven’t watched, the show follows six truckers who risk their lives driving supplies to Canada’s diamond mines. (Yes, this is Canada — not Alaska!)

As they cross 300 miles of icy lakes, they risk cold, frostbite and death. The way these drivers cope is part of what makes this show such riveting television — and it really showcases the Canadian spirit!

easily better than the big catch or whatever it was called.

Wouldn't it be great if Canadians could actually watch the series?
