Canada, our home and native

glorious and free', we were
beginning to pick up steam,

It seems
to me...

'0 Canada, we stand on guard
for thee', despite the lumps in
our throats, we had mustered
enough power to cause an an-
cient man, sleeping against a
dark wall, to lift his head and
stare, as we passed by!
This summer, we had
another brush with patriotism
when we attended a tiny
surprise when, leading into
his sermon, he stood up and
sang, from beinning to end
'The Maple Leaf Forever'.
Now, that's a song
everyone, my age, sang, lusti-
ly, at school every day, but
which, because of its British
Wag has fallen into such
disrepute that we hardly dare
even hum it, anymore.
You remember how it
goes... 'In days of yore, from
Britain's shore, Wolfe, the
dauntless hero came, ani
planted firm Britannia's flag
on Canada's fair domain.
Here may it wave, our boast
and pride, and join our hearts
together. The Thistle,
Shamrock Hose entwined,
The Maple Leaf Forever!'
It does seem out of place in
our multicultural land, today.
Nevertheless, this solemn
young man sang all five
verses in a loud, resonant
voice.
While we can never forget
what the French and other na-
tionalities have brought to our
great country, still, for a few
moments, it was very
nostalgic to recall those
faraway days when many of
us took allegiance to Country,
King and Empire, very
seriously.

0 Canada and the
The other night, at the
Blyth Festival theatre, biter
the lights had gone down and
we were settled in for an
evening's entertainment, the
playwright of 'Cake Walk',
very cleverly tricked us into
springing to our feet to sing '0
Canada', when the perfor-
mance was already a few
minutes underway. It may
have taken theaudience by
surprise, but the most amaz-
ing thing was the way in
which everyone stood so tall
and sang with so much
feeling. -
I can really get choked up
over 'O Canada', but no more
so than when we watched the
Canadian olympians, who,
having reached down to their
very depths to bring forth ex,
cellence, received their gold
medals while our flag waved
to the playing of our national
anthem. If you didn't feel
pride, there's something
wrong!
Of course, displaying too
much national pride, and
wrapping oneself in the flag
can be distasteful, but in my
opinion, it would be a poor
country, indeed, that had no
anthem to unify and
strengthen its people's spirits.
I suppose 1 will never,
again, sing '0 Canada'
without my mind slipping
back to India. One evening in
Delhi, we attended an outdoor
concert, after which, the
crowd rose, as one, to sing the
rousing Indian anthem in Hin-
di. Later, when we were being
driven back to our hotel by
friends, we asked them to
sing it for us, again. They
turned the tables on us, "It's
your turn, now!" In a strange
culture, late at night, driving
through that old, mysterious
city, we were enveloped in ex-
otic sights, sounds and
smells; and Canada seemed
far, far away.
We cleared out throats, and
started out very feebly... 'O

Dear Bill,
I'm writing because some
of your readers may be
curious to know why I am not
running for the NDP in this
election. Since I am Valerie
Bolton's campaign manager I
guess the press didn't think
there was a story there as
they did with Graeme Craig.
However, I have been getting
asked about it and I'd be glad
for everyone to know my
reasons.
The NDP has a long stan-
ding commitment to equality
for women and it is the only
party with an affirmative,ac-
tion program within its struc-
ture. Women have an impor-
tant and currently under-
represented role to play in the
Parliament of our country. It
is important to do more than
talk about egality. I worked
diligently to ensure we would
have a well qualified woman
candidate in Huron -Bruce
and I'm working hard now to
help her get elected.
A second reason is to give
voters a wider choice and to
give more people an oppor- -
tunity to participate in the
political process. I believe in
participatory democracy.
I've enjoyed being a can-
didate and the many oppor-
tunities for public service I've
had. I think it is nice to share
those opportunities.
I've been very pleased with
the way our campaign is go-
ing in Huron -Bruce. If any of
your readers would like to get
involved in our participatory
democratic effort they should
contact me. As the campaign
manager I May not be in the
limelight but I'm still pretty
involved.
Yours sincerely
