teenage
in their
her to
’ themselves and on their own
initiative, get on the move in
' ’67 to see more of Canada and
to learn more about it.
Many of us don’t take the op
portunity to do a liilttle amateur
research on Canada even at
short distances. I met a middle
aged man, for example, who
lived most of his life 90 miles
from .Niagara Falls and had
never seen (th^t gr^af yyonder
of the world, even though he
had toured the United Kingdom
and half of Europe during the
last war.
For the affluent, a trip across
Canada could well replace a
European holiday with sayings
to boot. (Though the distance is.
as great, the fare is less.) For
those of us who can’t afford
such a trip next year we need
only choose a travel radius of
one or a few lh.und|red miles, to
fit the pocketbook, and pick an
interesting spot we’ve never
visited before.
We have na shortage of fas
cinating communities, historical
sites and natural wonders to be
seen. I’ll wager that many Nova
Scotians and other Maritimers
have not yet visited1' the old
French Fortress of Louils.bourg,
now being restored on Cape
Breton Island, whose history on
the mere printed page stirs ex
citement and wonder. How
many B.C. .mainlanders have
really explored the beauties of
Vancouver Island and met the
interesting personalities who
live around the island ports and
towns?
I 'imagine I could pick anyone
at random on the main street of
any Ontario town and find that
he had not explored unbeaten
paths around the tobacco coun
try and old Loyalist commun
ities along Lake Erie’s north
shore, the told German Canadian
settlements in the Kitchener
area and studied the Huronia
museum on Georgian Bay. If I
were an Albertan I would want
to see those Japanese Gardens,
Lethbridge’s own Centennial
project, and perhaps meet some
of the enthusiastic Japanese
Canadians who were right be
hind that community effort.
Lots of people in La Belle
Province have neither yet roam
ed the narrow streets of the; old
.town of Quebec nor taken a
motor trip through the wild
country around the end of the
Gaspe.
Let’s make Centennial Year
the time for a real Canadian
holiday — with a purpose: to
know more about our country
and our countrymen.
