TORONTO – So far, he is a breath of “fresh air”, someone with whom all Canadians can easily identify, if they want: a person imbued with principles, an ideology that is altruistic, a record of service to the structure and culture of a universal collective dedicated to a common sensibility to responsibility, merit and to compassion for those who fall short.
TORONTO – Se fossi stato una figura politica canadese negli anni ’50, avrei acquistato i diritti della canzone Casetta in Canadà, Festival di San Remo, 1957, e avrei investito nella sua distribuzione tra nazioni e popoli desiderosi di una vita migliore altrove (qui per essere precisi). Il nostro Paese sarebbe stato invaso da immigrati caratterizzati dal loro ottimismo, grinta, e coraggio, proprio come il protagonista della canzone…
TORONTO – Had I been a Canadian political figure in the 1950s, I would have bought the rights to the song Casetta in Canada, Sanremo Festival, 1957 and invested in its distribution among nations and peoples desirous of a better life elsewhere (here to be specific). Our country would have been overrun with immigrants characterized by their optimism, drive and grit, just like the protagonist in the song.
TORONTO – Non sono tesserato a nessun partito politico, anche se non è sempre stato così. Detto questo, ammetto di essere rimasto incuriosito da una proposta, un’iniziativa, un piano “apparentemente inaspettato”… il lettore può riempire il vuoto… del Premier dell’Ontario, Doug Ford…
TORONTO – I am not a card-carrying member of any political party, although that was not always the case. Having said that, I admit to being intrigued by a “seemingly out of the blue” proposal, initiative, plan…the reader can fill in the blank… by Ontario’s Premier, Doug Ford. To my mind, he set the agenda for political debate (cause and consequence; need versus desirability, etc.) by proposing a feasibility study for the construction of an east-west highway under the existing Highway 401that connects Brampton to the Metro Zoo – an approximately 60-kilometre stretch through the geographic middle of the GTA.
