Canadiana
After Hurricane
Irma struck the leeward islands, including Anguilla, on September 6, 2017, with
a Category 5 strength, the entire island was without electricity for four
months.
The only reason that Anguilla was returned to full power before Christmas, 2017, was because of
these Canadian hydro workers below.
The UK
government paid to have 30 Canadian linesmen shipped to Anguilla and other
British islands, along with the heavy
equipment required for the repairs.
In Anguilla,
someone prepared a calendar to commemorate the activities and to raise funds
for local repairs. Some of the photos
from that calendar are shown below – true Canadiana!
And these
Canadians were a truly welcome sight!

today's world, the importance of a strong and independent press is ever more important.

Jon
Lowenstein. How intolerant our world is
becoming, and how so many people turn their backs on those in need.
-- Sue Croft, Rotary
Club of Barrie, District 7010
Frugal
Innovations. I see people in poverty doing this every day. Because they don’t
have much, they have no choice but to make the little they have serve them for
a lot.
-- Vicki Horsfield,
E-Club of Canada One, District 5370

Rotary minute
Here is a Rotary
Minute from Rotary Club of Palgrave
And it’s a
Canadian Club!
By Gary Walters
As Rotarians, we
receive monthly publications titled “The Rotarian”. One is international and
one focusses on Canadian Clubs. Each edition is filled with the stories of
wonderful projects to support humanity all across the globe. Projects ranging
from small, localized initiatives to better one’s own community to those that
take the world by storm (think Polio Plus).
While reading
through these magazines, it struck me that every good deed, every successful
project was all started by ONE person who had a passion for an idea.
They then brought
that idea to their Club which enabled the passion to spread and the idea then
became a project.
Sometimes, it
spreads from Club to Club and becomes much bigger than even the original
passionate soul could have imagined.
That is the power
of passion and Rotary.
