EC of the American Hockey League COMMUNITY NEWS a: & recollections A toast to the adopted land I'm sorry, but due to circumstances beyond the control of the editor or this column, the second part of the interview of Dr. John Hall's trip to Papua New Guinea has been postponed until next week. Meanwhile, I would like to offer the following for the consideration of our readers. This is my own, my nativeland! — Sir Walter Scott At this time, people all over the world are celebrating the 226th anniversary of the birth of Scottish poet Robert Burns. And since I was asked to give the traditional toast “To our adopted land” at the Castlegar Royal! Canadian Legion Burns Night, I was forced to give some thought to the questions: What is about the poetry of Robert Burns, who wrote in such broad Scots that even native born Scots sometimes need a glossary to under- stand his work? Why is he so popular that there are translations of his writing in such unlikely languages as Russian and Chinese? What is the significance of Burns Night and the Scot, Burns, to my Canada? To my thoughtful readers I offer my brief toast: Ladies and gentlemen: Thank you for asking me to propose the toast to our adopted land. It is a matter which is close to the heart of each of us, very much a part of all of us, and an essential part of the Burns Night celebrations overall. I remember an elderly friend who told the story of how he came to Canada from Italy as a young man, worked in the coal mines, on the railway, and for many years at Cominco. He recalled how one of his workmates kept trying to put him down because of his immigrant origins, and how finally he became angry and said to his tormentor: “What makes you so smart? You were born in this country and had no other choice. I chose to come to Canada. I love my motherland, but I am proud to be a Canadian.” When you start looking back, you start to realize that all of us are in a way, newcomers to this land — even our native peoples, whose ancestors made the long walk here from Asia thousands of years ago. In a like manner, all of us here tonight can look back and call a seore of other nations our motherland. ~; Moreover, we cap trayel south or over the ocean and visit, enjoy and take pride in the history, culture and tfaditions of that-mothercountry. However, once we begin to make the return journey at the end of our visit, we are quite consciously “returning home,” coming back to the land of our adoption. Moreover, when we arrive home, we bring not only the usual souvenirs, but a renewed sense of our cultural roots and customs which we share, as we are doing tonight, with other Canadians, and by doing so help create that rich national cultural fabric which we call the “Canadian mosaic.” We change and are changed by the land of our adoption, and we are, as a people and a nation, the richer for it. However, the job is far from done. We are still a young nation, still searching for a truly national identity, a national soul in the world family of nations — a not uncommon problem among adoptees. A.R.M. Lower, the famous Canadian historian, states it as follows: “If the Canadian people are to find their soul, they must seek for it not in the English language or the French but in the little ports of the Atlantic provinces, in the flaming autumn maples of the St. Lawrence valley, in the portages and lakes of the Canadian Shield, in the sunsets and relentless cold of the prairies, in the foothill and relentless cold of the prairies, in the foothill moun tains and sea of the West and in the unconquerable vast ness of the North. From the land Canada, must come the soul of Canada. Burns was a Scottish patriot who had no problems with national identity and who loved his country even more than he loved his ladies. But, at the same time, he was an internationalist — the voice of the common man heralding the brotherhood of nations, and it is in recognition of this that his birthdate is celebrated around the world more widely than that of another man. Classes for new Canadians “The need for the classes in this city surfaced during the last municipal election,” Voy- kin wrote. “I discovered while campaigning that some Portuguese people could not this week to give $500 to the Castlegar Multicultural So ciety The society plans to use the funds to hold-orientation classes for adult new Can adians. In a letter to council, So ciety president John Voykin — who also represents Area I on the Central Kootenay Re- gional District board — said, “We are considering holding these classes one evening 4 week — two-hour sessions for possible six weeks — during March and April.” Voykin said Castlegar school districts has given permission for the classes to be held at Castlegar Primary Sehool. vote because they were not Canadian citizens.” He added that there are also Chinese, Laotian and East Indians who may be interested in the courses. The courses will cost $2,000 and the Society plans to apply to the Secretary of State for a grant to help fund them, Voykin said. Ald. Len Embree sup- ported the grant, noting, “I think the need is valid.” Embree said a major prob- lem for all residents in this ROBBIE BURNS .. . born Jan. 25, 1759 It is in the last verse of his poem “A Man's a Man for A’ That,” that this spirit is exemplified. He writes: “Then let us pray that come it may, (As come it will for a’ that,) That Sense and Worth, o'er a’ the earth, Shall bear the gree, an’ a’ that. For a’ that, an’ a’ that, It’s coming yet for a’ that, That man to man, the world o'er, Shall brithers be for a’ that.” And thus it is that tonight, we who represent so many nations and so many callings and professions, but only one adoptive land, can identify with Burns’ sense of sharing and brotherhood. I think that he would not only be completely approving of this gathering but completely at home as well. After turning in the above copy to the editor I then went to a meeting of the Castlegar Writers Guild where, in effect, discussion on the upcoming student short story writing contest raised the question once again. Since the contest is being sponsored in association with the multicultural celebrations next month, it was necessary to consider the general topic for the contest. This led to a short, vigorous debate on the conflicting philosophies of the “Canadian mosaic” and “American melting pot.” The mosaic took it. For those students who wish to take part in the contest, as well as their parents and teachers, we offer the following general guide to the contest. The categories are the same as last year: Kindergarten to Grade 3, Grade 4-6, Grade 7-9, and Grade 10-12. The short stories (one to ‘six pages) should be concerned with “The special things that people from different groups bring to being a Canadian.” The deadline is Feb. 18. The stories should be neatly written or typed if possible on one side of the page double spaced. Include your name, address, phone number, teacher and school, as well as your grade. Turn your stories in to your homeroom teacher or mail c/o Mrs. S. Plotnikoff, 3012 4th Ave., Castlegar. Prizes include a first-place plaque for each category and book prizes (12) for the first three places in each category. A representative of the Guild will be contacting the schools. Don’t forget the final date — on or before Feb. 18. And do take a look at that toast again. The spirit of the contest is located there and the term “groups” has been left very wide. Finally, and having nothing to do directly with the above, but because I have been asked for it frequently, I offer the “Selkirk Grace:” The Selkirk Grace Some hae meat and canna eat, And some wad eat that want it; But we hae meat and we can eat, Sae let theLord be thankit. —Robert Burns Property issue still unresolved By CasNews Staff Sometimes the wheels at city hall move slowly — just ask Ray McLean. McLean says he first complained to Castlegar council nearly two years ago about a neighbor who he feels built a garage too close to the property line. Last week McLean finally had his say before council's works and services committee. McLean told the committee that the building permit granted his neighbor calls for a greenhouse to be constructed, but his neighbor built a roof and garage within one metre of the property line. McLean said the neighbor has also piled “junk” between the garage and the fence facing his property. The irate McLean told the committee he would be satisfied if the neighbor cleaned up the junk since he's “tired of looking at it.” However, Ald. Bob Pakula, works and services committee chairman, says ‘the issue still hasn't been resolved. Pakula told council this week the problem has been area is but it is even a ttore difficult prob- lem for new C: a but not He added, “It looks more like a... neighborly feud.” } wears — To Mr. nt Mrs. David Einarson of Castlegar, o Biel, born Jan. 21.
