TERRACE — History is too
- . often recorded by the dominant
. group in a society,
 That?’s. changed here recently
with the production of a video of
the early experiences of non- §
English speaking immigrants to
Canada and to Terrace. .
- Called Canada: Cold country,
Warm Heart the 90-minute pro-
"duction was filmed by students of
. an English as a Second Language
“class at Northwest Community
> 2 College.
“. "Ten people representing a wide
“ross section of non-English
:.; Speaking groups in the area were
‘+ - interviewed.
"We wanted as many groups as
possible,’ explained course in-
..,s: structor Heather Bellamy, ‘These
wo ‘people never had a chance to tell
~ > otheirstories before.”
- “Those stories ranged from expe- _
“Ttences in the 1950s to modem
days. Although the years differed,
the experiences of learning the
language - cand dealing with new
“customs remained the same.
Interviewed were people from
-Vietmam,,-  Haly,, Germany,
‘ Portugal, the Phillipines and In-
~dia,.
‘SAt school I learned to say
‘ “Hello. How are you’,”’ remem-
-bers' Chan Huyhn from Vietnam.
“Then I-walk the streets and
"people say ‘Hi. How’s it going,’ I
-. ‘didn’t know what it means.”’
_ °, Phat use of slang continued to
"be a puzzle, as did the speaking
» habits of Canadians.
. “At school we learned ‘He
doesn’t know anything,” But at
work they say something like ‘He
doesn’t know nothing’,’* said
Chan Huyhn.
