FISHER CENTENNIAL COMMISSIONER Centennial Report 1867 U1967 ADASTRAL PARK SOCIAL NOTES A farewell party was held re­ cently in honour.of Mrs. Muriel Bunbridge of CFB Clinton. Eleven guests enjoyed them­ selves and presented the depart­ ing lady with lively gifts of Blue Mountain pottery. The bq Um.Uhiting Scooped again! On Sept­ ember the first in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and sixty-six, at 8:30 p.m., Canada’s second television netwoi'k to go into operation, scooped the pants off the tired' old CBC. How? Simply by introducing colour TV to Canadians by pro­ ducing a “special” entitled “Colour Preview ’66”. And who appeared on this 60- minute colour spectacular? Two people who are most im­ portant in the broadcasting in­ dustry — The Honourable Judy LaMarsh, Secretary of State, and Dr. Andrew Stew­ art, Chairman of the Board of Broadcast Governors. And who knows, CTV officials may have tried for the Prime Minister, but he was busy with a rail­ road strike. But you can bet that CTV will have him in colour for his annual Christmas message, along with John Dief­ enbaker, Leader of the Oppo­ sition. Judy looked very attractive In colour and' had these remarks: “Surveys tell me that not other activity occupies more of our waiting hours than TV viewing. Even now, I do not believe we fully understand the dimensions of the impact that viewing has on our lives and the patterns which >guide them. The intro­ duction of full colour is certain to bring a new richness to our experience as viewers”. Dr. Stewart said'; "CTV net­ work and its stations are to be commended for 'the efforts they are malting, and have made, to add to their service to their viewers ill this way. There is no question that .col­ our is an improvement in tele­ vision and I recommend to' you that you take every possible Opportunity to see the programs which are available in colour^ and I am sure you will respond to the new interest and the new dimension which colour brings to the television screen”. Yes, the CBC missed a won- dbrful opportunity, but they’ll probably Wave “Mike** and “Diet” to colour for Christmas, four months fboitix how. Report _What. inspires me most, of all Centennial plains’ and projects is the fresh, enthusiastic ap­ proach of many individual Can­ adians 'to our 100th annivers­ ary of Confederation, At the Centennial Commis­ sion We receive hundreds of let­ ters from individual families, asking for no praise or assist­ ance, merely telling us about theiir plans to celebrate the Centennial and offering genuine expressions of trier own pride in being Canadians. It lis unfortunate that we1 can­ riot. do much about the pessi­ mists — the knockers 'and the moaners. In Canada they seem to get far too much publicity. I think we should try to. turn our -attention away from, them as much as possible and join with those who have positive ideas about Canada’s future and for that matter, the welfare of all mankind. t It gives one a warm, happy feeling to thiink about the Guignard family from Callan- dar, Ontario, tor example, start­ ing off on a world trip in a Model T Ford all decked out with Centennial crests . and flags. Their motivation Was siimply a desire to advertise Canada’s Centennial. Mr, Guig­ nard, who is travelling with his Wife and daughter, says, “I spent six years fighting for Canada. Why not spend one year advertising it?” We received a straightfor­ ward announcement in a letter from J. Ward Loveys of DorVai, Quebec, describing his plan to travel from coast to coast dur­ ing this ’and next summer. This summer Mr. Loveys is motoring to Prince Rupert, , _ to Skagway, Alaska, then, driving down the Alaska-Highway and Macken- ’ ........——■ B.C., sailing oNo. 20 zie Highway south-east through the Yukon and Northwest Ter­ ritories. Next summer he’ll complete his Centennial trip with a tour of the Atlantic provinces. Then there are the two young Canadians', one a native, the other an immigrant, who to­ gether ante' crossing Canada on a 20,000 mile back-roads trip and writing about their experi­ ences, impressions and What they hear from other Canadians who are planning to celebrate Centennial. One *is Paul Page, 26, a for­ ester and painter Who was born in Orillia and lives* in Toronto. The other’ is1 Marc Chaumiard, 27, who was bom in Algeria and has been living in Montreal and ..Toronto since Coming to Canada three years* ago. They first discussed the idea of a Centennial trip in Toronto' where Paul, a graduate of the Ontario* 'College of Art, has, an hais been working as a French instructor. They started out with a car -and' a tent and up to mid-summer, have covered Newfoundland, P.E.I., Nova Scotia and most of New Bruns­ wick. The Kingston Whig-Stan­ dard and the Telegram in Tor­ onto > have been publishing writings and sketches they have produced during , their travels. What pleases me most of all, of course, is 'that they are stirring interest in *the Centennial a- mong all the people they meet. Without prodding by govern­ ment agencies and without sub­ sidies, many Canadians are malting a great contribution to the Centennial celebrations al­ ready. It is their kind of en­ thusiasm that will make 1967 a success. It is people like them who will make the future of Confederation a success too. Roibmson who spent the summer in. British Colum­ bia, returned. home on Friday. Mr. *aud Mto- Herbert Kirk­ ham, Loudon, spent Sunday with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Emerson. Heard.
