"Banshees Over Canada" is a 1943 Canadian documentary film, made by the National Film Board of Canada. Produced by Sydney Newman and directed by James Beveridge, the nineteen-minute film examines British preparations for a German bombing raid, as well as the resultant destruction caused by the raid and the defences mounted by Britain's Royal Air Force. The film then shows Canadian preparations for air defence, should the country be attacked during the then-current Second World War.

The film's Canadian French title was "Vautours au-dessus du Canada".
