NAJPLODNIJA GODINA JUGO- -
SLOVENSKO — KANADSKOG
DRUSTVA
U nedjelju 28. decembra odrzana
je godiSnja skupStina Jugosloven-sko-Kanadsko- g
druStva na kojoj je
bila izabrana nova uprava i viSe
odbora za predstojece djelatnosti
ove organizacije koja je nikla u
redovima Jugoslovena prije tri
godine.
Ve6i dio vremena je posvjecen
sumiranju rada, citanju izvjeStaja i
u uCeScu u diskusiji.
Naosnovu ovih referata doSlo se
do slijedeceg bilansa: dva velika
banketa, 5 masovnih piknika (i
nekoliko nesluzbenih prilikom rad-ni- h
akcija na farmi), 6 redovnih
sastanaka 6ije odluke su se znatno
odrazile u opcem radu druStva,
potom viSe grupnih konsultacija i
drugih sastajanja u vezi sa Jugo-slovenski- m
radio — satom, prikup-Ijanje- m

osnutka do danas, na osnovu kojih

Kao Sto je poznato, preporod

FILMOVA
veoma zainteresovafli za na-S- e
filmove. Nadamo se da ce
filmovi u 1981. godini redov-nij- e
pristizati, jer lo je u
interesu svih iseljenika i
iseljeniCkih druStava. Na
ovaj na6in kroz ovo udru-zen- je
prode vise hiljada
iseljenika godiSnje.
na druStveno kulturnom po-Ij- u,
Sto se u daljoj perspek-tiv- i
mora nadoknaditi. Nije
dovoljno da deca samo znaju
6itati i pisati, decu treba
zainteresovati i na druStve-no- m
polju.a kroz druStvene
aktivnosti deci usadjivati Iju-b- av
i patriotizam prema sta-r- oj
domovini.
Izvestitelj
Iz sveg ovog se moze konstatirati
daje i financiski rezultat zadovolja-vajuc- i
i da ce se sva sredstva uloziti
u izgradnju jedne provizorne hale
cija izgradnja ce otpoieti narednog
proljeta na farmi. Sav radni poten-cij- al
biti ce ulozen u torn smjeru
kao i u osposobljavanju vec o6i-ббеп- од
zemljista za razne sportske
aktivnosti.
Glavni problem je I nadalje
omasovljavanje druStva koje je do
sada teklo sporadicno i ako za to
ima povoljnih uvjeta. U predstoje-ce- m
periodu ce se i na tome vise
poraditi, pogotovu zbog toga Sto
postoji dobra baza, moralna i
novcana.
Novoizabrana uprava ce se us-ko- ro
sastati i donijece plan za
narednu godinu u svim vidovima
druStvenog davanja.
Prilikom smjenjivanja uprave,
koja je zastupala druStvo u proSloj
godini, izrecene su pohvale za njen
plodan rad. Tom prilikom je jedan
od naSlh pionira i zasluznih ljudi
dirljivo rekao o tome da je danaSnje
druStvo u stvari nastavak ranijih
progresivnih druStava Jugoslovena
u ovom mjestu i da poStivanje
nastojanja drugova iz proSlosti
treba da bude ideja — vodilja u
naSem buducem radu.
Na koncu da se napomene da je
ovaj godiSnji sastanak druStva bio
veoma dobro posjecen, da mu je
prisustvovao ve6i broj naSih aktiv-ni- h
zena i da je citav program bio
na takovoj visini, kao moida nikad
do sada. Diskusija je bila na visini,
a kritika konstruktivna i sa velikom
dozom razumljevanja.
Dakle, sve u svemu, to je bila
atmosfera koja se samo moze
U utorak uve6e, 13. janu-ar- a,
Udruzenje "Karadorde" i
sportski klub "Kanadski Sr-bi- ",
pripremili su docek
"starokalendarske" Nove go-din- e.
Poset ovoj znaCajnoj pri-red- bi
nije bio velik. Neki to
objaSnjavaju slabom re-klam- om,
a drugi radnim
danom.
Oba objasnjenja mogu se
primiti na razne naCine, ali
ni jedno drugo objaSnjenje
ne moze se primiti na bilo
koji na6in. Oni koji smo bili
na do6eku "srpske" nove
godine, ako nista drugo,
napravili smo jedan pre-seda- n,
te ce od sada do6ek
nove godine, koji 6e pri-prem- iti
ova drustva, sigurno
biti i bolje pose6en i bolje
prireden.
U to ime Udruzenju "Kara-dord- e"
i sportskom klubu
"Kanadski Srbi" zelimo naj-bol- je
uspehe u novoj 1981.
godini.
DRUGA IZL02BA
SLIKA PALA
MOLNARA
Petog decembra u ovdaSnjem Air
Line Motelu izlagao je svoje pej-sa- ze
naS slikar Pal Molnar. 0
stvaranju ovog umjetnika smo se u
par navrata osvrnuli u clancima i
prikazima. Ovo je bila druga zva-nifi- na
izlozba u koju je ulozeno
mnogo truda i koja je uspjela i ako
je bila zakazana u vrijeme koje,
moze se reci, ne odgovara naSim
ljubiteljima umjetnosti: od deset
sati izjutra do cetiri posljije podne.
Ovome svemu treba dodati da je
prvi posjetilac bio gradonacelnik
(koji je doSao ponovo i posle
podne). Treba staviti primjedbu da
je izloZbi prisustvovao manji broj
upravo naSih ljudi koji bi svojlm
ибеббет uvelicali ovu kulturnu
manifestaciju.
Tih stotinak posjetilaca dugo se
zadrzavalo pred ostvarenjima Pala
Molnara. Bilo je i dirljivih scena
kao u staro vrijeme poStivanja
umjetnika, kada je nekoliko dama
priSlo autoru I Cestitalo mu ha
naCin koji se nekad davno prakti-k'ova- o:
poljupcem!
Prodato je nekoliko slika viSe po
simbclicnoj cijenl nego Sto su
djela vredjela. Ali to su prvi koraci
naSeg Pala. i oni mnogo obedavaju,
pogotovu Sto on svakodnevno stva-r-a,
svakodnevno novo i novo.
Privatnih ponuda je viSe i umjetnik
se izgleda mora odreci i onih
radova koje nije imao namjeru da
proda. To je velika dilema, uo-stalo- m
kao i svih ostalih umjetnika
njegova kova. TeSko je rastati se s
djelom, ali njegova vrijednqst pro-dajo- m
ipak raste i daje inspiracije
za daljnja ostvarenja.
Uostalom, Pal Molnar ce u aprllu
izlagati, iskljuCivo pejsaze, u To-ront- u.
To bi trebalo da bude jedna
od posjecenijih izlozbi s prodajom
od koje ce jedan dobar dio sred-stav- a
biti posvjecen naSem listu.

By William Stewart
(Canadian Scene) — The first
European explorer known to have
visited the island of Montreal was
the French navigator, Jacques
Cartier. 1л 1535, during hjs second
voyage of exploration, he travelled
up the St. Lawrence River by
longboat from what now is the
location of Quebec City.
The first French outpost at
Montreal was established only in
the next century. Thirty-fou- r years
after Quebec was founded in 1608,
a Jesuit mission and fur trading
station were set up at Montreal by
Paul de Chomedy de Maisonneuve.
Under the French regime lasting
until 1760, Montreal was a slow--growi- ng
centre of trade, settle-ment
and missionary work.
After Canada was ceded to
England by the Treaty of Paris,
1763, Montreal developed as a
commercial centre. It outgrew Que-bec
City and for a time was the seat
of Parliament. English was- - as
prominent as French in community
affairs.
Under Confederation in 1867,
when the Dominion of Canada was
created and Quebec got a distinct
provincial government, the French
population grew steadily and its
language became widespread in
Montreal. The city's businessmen,
most of them English-speakin- g,
developed Montreal into the head-quarters
of Canadian banking and
finance, as a major port and a
commercial and manufacturing lo-cation,
and as the country's metro-polis.
Today, control of Canadian bu-siness
activity is shifting to To-ronto
and westward, although
Montreal remains one of Canada's
most important and active cities. It
still is the principal meeting place
of the country's French and En-glish
language groups, as well as
the new home of people who have
come to Canada from many parts
of the world.
Attention given to Montreal in
recent years is due largely to its
mayor, Jean Drapeau, who had an
early term as a reformer in 1954-5- 7
and since 1960 has been re-elect- ed
regularly. A dreamer of grand
designs, Mayor Drapeau was the
chief promoter of Expo '67 cele-brating
Canada's Centennial, and
of the Summer Olympics of 1976.
His idea always has been to make
Montreal what he calls an "inter-national
city".
The large island on which Mon-treal
has grown is at the ionfluen-c- e
of the St. Lawrence and Ottawa
rivers. The island, from which a
small mountain rises, is 50 km
long and 14 km at its widest point.
The St. Lawrence breaks into
rapids on the southern side of the
island and to overcome that ob-stacle
to navigation the Lachine
Canal was built in 1835.
The extensive St. Lawrence Sea-way
System, a Canada-Unite- d Sta-tes
undertaking inaugurated in
1957, put the Lachine Canal into
disuse. The Seaway's eastern en-trance
is at Montreal.
The port of Montreal is 1,600 km
from the Atlantic and its facilities
rank among the best in the world.
By means 6f ice retainers and
icebreaking ships, the port has
traffic almost 12 months a year,
although acitivity is reduced in
winter when the St. Lawrence
Seaway is inoperative.
Montral's island location has
involved building many bridges to
connect roads, highwasy and rail-ways
to the mainland for the
metropotitan area population of
2.75 million.
The oldest section of Montreal
,lieg .cjojse .tp,the .waterfojit.,The.
narrow streets have been preserved
and many of the two-an- d three--store- y
stone buildings have been
renovated as apartment residen- -
ces, boutiques and restaurants.
The district is called Old Montreal
and city authorities hope to protect
its character.
Nearby St. James Street, now
bearing the French name St.
Jacques, was once in the heart of
the financial district but that has
moved north, about one km to
Dorchester Boulevard where buil-dings
are newer and taller.
St. Jacques, with a large new
provincial courthouse at its eastern
end, not far form the old City Hall
building, now has many law of-fices.
The offices of the daily
newspapers La Presse and The
Gazette are on St. Jacques street
and those of the select daily, Le
Devoir, are a short distance away
near Notre Dame Church, which
faces Place d'Armes and is at the
location of the city's first parish
church.
The best-know- n hotels are
within easy reach of the centre of
the city. A large exhibition centre,
Place Bonaventure, is located in a
building that also has a hotel, a
shopping area and restaurants. A
downtown convention centre is
under construction.
Many of the buildings in the
heart of the city are connected by
underground shopping malls that
also connect with the principal
railway station and the Metro, the
16-years-- old subway system who-se
trains run on inflated rubber
tires.
The headquarters of the Cana-dian
Pacific and Canadian National
Railways are in Montreal as well as
the head offices of Air Canada.
Manufacturing industries related to
the railways and to air transporta-tion
and shipping also are located
in the city.
Domestic airline flights and
flights to the United States use
Dorval Airport, a 22.5 km drive from
downtown Montreal. Overseas fl-ights
use a new airport at Mirabel,
50 km from the city.
Montrealers are good patrons for
established French and English
theatres and there are many cine-mas
and entertainment in the three
halls of the Place des Arts, the
city's performing arts centre.
The municipal Botanical Gar-dens,
in the eastern section, are
well attended, and public parks
including one on Mount Royal, the
city's mountain, are popular.
Sports events including those at
the costly Olimpic Stadium draw
large crowds and the city is due to
have a professional soccer team in
1981.
Although surrounded by su- -
.burbs, Montreal has kept a lively
and attractive downtown district
that its people and visitors enjoy.
Political conflicts have caused
tension at times, but a tradition od
accommodation exists among
people of different backgrounds
and, as a general rule, citizens are
able to conduct their lives without
interference.
