Good Times Bad Times is a Canadian documentary film, directed by Donald Shebib and released in 1969.[1] A depiction of military veterans, the film juxtaposed original BBC documentary footage from World War I and World War II with contemporary footage of veterans recalling their experiences at Royal Canadian Legion halls, Remembrance Day commemorations and veterans hospitals.[2]

Narrated by John Granik, the film was distributed primarily as an episode of the CBC Television documentary series The Way It Is.[2]

The film won the Canadian Film Award for Best Feature Length Documentary in 1969.[3]
