Funding for this story was provided by the Canada Council for the Arts, the Department of Canadian Heritage, Agriculture Canada, Telefilm Canada, Groupaction, and the Centre for Disease Control.“Lord tunderin’!” Alistair cried as he took a mouthful of steaming maple-and-pemmican soup.“She’s some hot!” Even though he had been in the woods of the Canadian Shield for years, the lumberjack’s Maritime accent was never more pronounced than when he became excited, such as when he caught a beaver gnawing at the totem pole outside his log cabin or when he heard news of the expanding national railway on the CBC.Alistair had only vague recollections of his childhood in Cape Breton - watching the men come up from the coal mine, filthy from the hard but honest work.Before long, Grandfather would be tuning up his stubby beer bottles and playing “John Alec Angus Donald McDonald’s Reel.” The family would dance late into the evening until Father would become enraged from too much rum and thrash them all to sleep.He was a hard man, but honest.“Tabernoosh,just eat your soup,” scolded Marie, Alistair’s French-Canadian bride, whose girlish figure was but a distant memory after all these years of roughing it in the bush.“You’re always complaining, whether it’s my Jos-Louis Surprise or my Northrop Fish Fry.Be happy with what you have.Don’t you know there are Métis children starving in Manitoba?” Alistair grumbled to himself, like a moose clearing his throat for a speech in the House of Commons.He thought of storming out and traveling by the gleam of the northern lights across the lake to see whether his friend Majaliiguaq was in his igloo.But this was October and Majaliiguaq was wintering in Florida these days now that he’d retired from the Hudson’s Bay Company.“Will you be carving any soapstone sculptures tonight?” Marie asked.“The tourist season is nearly here and we have only a half-dozen kilograms of those snowdomes with the Dionne quintuplets inside.Of course, since we burned the American White House to the ground in the War of 1812, the Yankee tourist trade isn’t what it used to be.” “Sweet Mary and Joseph Papineau, woman! Is your toque too tight?Of course I’m not carving tonight.Tomorrow is Thanksgiving - the right proper Thanksgiving, the one in October and not in November,” said Alistair.“I’ve got to prepare for our guests, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.” Alistair and Marie glared at each other.Their cultures, their languages, so different.Would there never be peace between them?Sometimes their marriage felt like an ill-fitting hockey sweater ordered from the Eaton’s catalogue.Other times there was a comfort between them, a certain strained.confederacy.Just then, there was a knock at the door.“Great Mother of Atwood!” cried Alistair.“Who could that be?” Marie opened the door to find the Iroquois hunting guide, Lightfoot Gordon.“A man has come to see you, selling trinkets and promises of free medical care,” said Lightfoot.“Look: Robertson screwdriver.” Behind the proud First Nations member was a tall lanky man in a cowboy hat astride a Skidoo.Alistair peered over Marie’s shoulder to examine him.The man looked hard, but honest.“Evenin’ friends,” said the stranger, coming closer.“Like he says, I’ve been all across this great land Saddling up for Canada Day Ross Murray JEN YOUNG The horses are being groomed for the Canada day gallop through the streets.Enjoy Canada Day! “Shoulder to Shoulderv “The Hut” Army, Navy, Air Force 300 St.Francis St., i Lennoxville 2005 Freestar Unbetiveable price! * Transportation & taxes extra Drop in today!

#p* £ '-afTTr .St Andrews Church has been flying the Canadian flag out front since the mid 1800s.Dance in the street or step back in history By Claudia Villemaire Richmond It would seem community groups and ordinary citizens have conspired to make this area of the Eastern Townships the busiest Canada Day weekend around.With dancing in the street, ice cream socials, museum openings,.antique cars cruising the main streets, a Canada Day parade would seem almost redundant.too much.“Years ago when I was young, we didn’t do much on Canada Day," recalled Captain Gary Pollock, (retired, Royal Canadian Navy).“We had ‘fire cracker’ day you know.That’s when all us young fellows would stock up on those packages of the smallest firecrackers and the odd roman candle and create quite a stir on the 24th of May.That was our day to celebrate.the queen’s birthday, or back then, the king’s birthday,” he recounted.But times are ‘a-changin’.“When all the talk was about separation and independence here, well, we, (the Royal Canadian Legion) decided we’d best get out there and put our pride on parade.” That was 1989 according to Pollock.And parade they did, complete with marching bands, bagpipers and horses by the dozen.But time and tide have a way of catching up with even the best-laid plans.In 2004, with Legion members beginning to slow down as the years took their toll on energy and rheumatic joints, spectators seeming to lose enthusiasm and folks coming to watch were getting disgracefully few, legion members remembered the days of the ‘street dance’ when hundreds would turn out for an afternoon of music and dancing, sometimes even in the Encan Bilingual Licensed Auctioneer We buy & sell complete farms and farm equipment § * CD CM 1274 South St., Cowansville (450) 266-0670 (450) 263-4480 streets.“So we came up with the notion perhaps we should revert to that kind of celebration - less work for the folks who offer their help, and, I think, more fun for everyone.” Consequently, Carpenter Street, a short stretch of pavement that joins Main and College with the Legion building sitting squarely on the corner, will be turned into an old-fash- ioned dance hall.Roger Desrochers’s fiddle together with his musical friends will stir up dusty old memories, refreshments will be ample and the entire afternoon from 3 p.m.and into the evening, (aside from bar beverages, hot dogs and such are free), there’s no admission charge.Perhaps toting along your own chair is recommended.Elsewhere, just up the highway on the Richmond Fair- grounds, the 4-H Club will hold its 30th annual ice cream and fresh strawberry social.Although ice cream for this event has been purchased ready-made for the past ten years, Peter Griffith still remembers what a daunting task those first years of making their own was all about.Nick Fonda, the Record’s news reporter at the time, chronicled the event.Quoting from his account of that first social, an idea that sprouted from changes to the dairy policy of the time that had milk producers pouring milk down the drain, Fonda wrote, “A lot of hands were involved in this operation: Danny Boersen, Laura Johnston, Trenholm and Doug Nelson, Cindy Johnston and several others all did their fair share with the mix-master.” They learned quickly that too much beating turned cream to butter - too much sun turned cream sour with the result they began their first social with 50 pounds of homemade butter and 27 gallons of ice cream.They had decided July 1 would be their Ice Cream Social Day.Their decision to begin this event was only a few days old when the fateful date arrived.Advertising was almost solely by word of mouth and, as starting time drew closer, angry iouds burst open to douse just about every bit of determination these young people had mustered.But the rest is history.One car slowed to a stop around 7:30 pm, another followed suit - then another and another, t one point, fifty cars lined the narrow country road that passed the Griffith farm.When all was said and done, over 300 people turned out for ice cream and strawberries on a rainy, July 1 evening.And the tradition continues to this day.“I am so proud they, (the Young Farmers now known as 4-H) have kept this event going for so long.All of us now accompany our own kids and some have grandkids in the 4-H Ice Cream Social.They don’t even have to advertise.It’s automatic and everyone knows - there’ll be an ice cream social at the fairgrounds July 1, just like every other year for the past 30 years,” Peter says.While we’re on the subject of ice Please see Richmond Page 5 OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK 7:00 A.M.T011:00 P.M.QLC Agent SAQ ‘ityofefuf &ucad 46.Which one of the following statements is true?Sir Louis-Hippolyte Lafontaine and Robert Baldwin: a) Were the first Europeans to see the Rocky Mountains b) Were French and British military commanders c) Formed an alliance of reformers in Lower and Upper Canada 47.In 1864, colonial representatives first met in P.E.I.to discuss the idea of a federal union of all the British North American provinces.What is the name of this famous meeting?Post-Confederation history 48.What year did Confederation occur?"Bonus" Score yourself an extra point in you can name the original provinces that joined together in Confederation.49.Which American War sped the move towards Confederation?50.After more than a decade of construction and a string of political scandals, what great Canadian engineering feat was completed in 1885 with the hammering of the last spike?51.What was the name of the Metis leader hanged for his role in rebellions in Canada’s West in 1869-70 and 1885?52.The Canadian North was transformed in the late 1890s when some 100,000 prospectors poured into the Yukon hoping to ' ' strike it rich.” What name was given to this colourful period in Canadian history?53.Which ethnic group had to pay a head tax to gain entrance into Canada?54.Name Canada’s first francophone prime minister who optimistically proclaimed: “The 20th century will belong to Canada.” 55.In the First World War a massive ammunition explosion in a Canadian city killed 1,600, injured 9,000 and left thousands more homeless.Where did this occur?56.Which of the following was Canada’s most famous single victory in the First World War that consisted of the capture of a key ridge on the Western front?a) Battle of Vichy b) Battle of Vimy Ridge c) Battle of Ortona 57.Which of the following three people was the Canadian commander in the First World War whose plan led to the victory at Vimy Ridge?a) Douglas MacArthur b) Horatio Nelson c) Arthur Currie 58.Who was Canada’s famous “flying Ace” of the First World War?59.Capt.John McCrae served as a medical officer in the First World War and wrote what is considered to be Canada’s most famous war poem.What is it called?60.Every Nov.11, Canadians commemorate the service and sacrifice of the nation’s veterans.What is the common symbol of Canadian remembrance?"Bonus** Score yourself an extra point if you can explain why Nov.11 was chosen as Remembrance Day.More quiz next page Karnak Shriiiers present WESTERN RODEO FESTIVAL RODEO sanctioned by Canadian Professional Riders Association featuring Saddle Bronc Riding Bareback Riding Bull Riding Calf Roping Steer Wrestling Barrel Racing Exchanger Rider and more.Full Shriners Contingent will be on site including Clown Unit Shriners Oriental Band Arab Patrol & Drum Corp Motor Corp Saturday Noon arrival of Motorcycle Convoy 300+ participants CAMPERS WELCOME RV Facilities available Fun for the entire family young & old!!
