How Polish Immigrants Built Modern Canada
Welcome to Thee Poland! In this 20-minute, in-depth feature, we uncover
the little-known but essential story of Polish engineers and pioneers
who laid the foundations of Canada’s major urban centers. From political
emigration in the mid-19th century to scientific emigration after World
War II, Polish immigration brought specialized skills and resilience
that helped build the Canadian nation. Uncover the incredible,
often-untold chapter of Canadian history! This video reveals the
profound and lasting influence of Polish immigrants—from brilliant
engineers to resilient pioneers—who physically and culturally built the
cities we recognize today. When you look at the majestic skylines of
Montreal and the sprawling infrastructure of Toronto, you're seeing a
mosaic shaped by Polish resilience and ingenuity.

Thoughts on a Sunday Morning - Summer Sunshine & Rest
July 5, 2026 by the Rev. Nola Crewe
Happy Summer . . .
I hope you are enjoying days off, or have plans for them when they
arrive.
All the vacation days earned over the past year, the planned for
trips to distant places or staycationing at home.
Have you made plans or did you use your vacation to escape the
winter and headed south in January?
My ideas on the need and God’s graceful blessings on the virtue of
rest as well as work.

Thoughts on a Sunday Morning - the 28th day of June 2026 - Canada
Happy Canada Day . . .
Enjoy all the blessings we have and explore parts of it that you
have never visited before: whether a trek to a mountain top,
kayaking down the Yellowknife River or checking out a new restaurant
that serves food from a land you will never visit.
Canada . . . a land of incredible beauty, natural resources and
fascinating people.
My THOUGHTS . . .
