A fun, heartwarming Christmas adventure. It feels both offbeat and familiar and has a variety of escapades but still manages to keep a lowkey atmosphere, and an excellent music solo, all in a 20 minute package. I personally enjoy it even more than the Peanuts Christmas special. One of many Canadian productions from the 80's that's practically impossible to find a copy of these days.
