Does anyone know the origin of this name? |

I think it's some sort of organisation in canada. I did a search one time and came to some organisation site but i didn't really understand what it was. |

I wonder what their rational for choosing the name was. |

I think they used to watch these films from the boards of canada education people (or something). Hence the name. |

its from "The National Film Board of Canada" which makes awesome experimental short films and documentaries and animation. Supposedly they watched tons of these movies when they were young and living in alberta. The track on Geogaddi with leslie nielsen talking is from a NFB movie and so is the Energy Warning if im not mistaken. |
