This is a propaganda film made to bolster the Canadian war bond effort. As such, it's the sort of film you are highly unlikely to stumble upon on television.
Most of the film consists of footage taken directly from Disney's SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS, though the latter portion uses some new animation and backgrounds. The reused portion shows the Dwarfs mining diamonds in their mine and singing. However, in a twist, the new portion shows them taking the diamonds to the local post office or bank and exchanging them for war bonds. It's all very patriotic and I am sure it worked very well at the time, though when seen today it's a bit tedious and mostly of interest to history buffs. The average person out there will probably be less impressed.
Not bad but also not particularly great either. Plus the transition from the old material and the new was not as seamless or well done as it should have been.
