A Humble Reminder to Tamil Canadians:
With poor turnouts at the box office and no private financing for screening the film, we have no choice but to stop showing 1999 after Sunday, November 22.
We are disappointed that even after being selected for an international film festival,
the movie is struggling to get viewership from Tamil Canadians, for whom it was proudly made.
1999 is a story about loss and hope. It is a story about us. And it is a story worth telling.
How else will others understand what some of us have endured?
This is your last chance. Come and watch the movie by this Sunday, November 22.
1999 will have two showings everyday at 7:30pm and 10:30pm between today and Sunday, November 22 at Woodside Cinemas (1571 Sandhurst Circle, Scarborough). For families with children and for those who need to see the film earlier in the day, we have arranged an additional screening on Sunday, November 22nd at 4:30 PM.
1999 ranked as one of the top 10 most popular Canadian films at the Vancouver International Film Festival. For only two hours of your time and $10 per ticket, 1999 promises a powerful, edge-of-your- seat movie experience.
Please don't give up this chance. Bring your family and friends and watch this movie by Sunday, November 22.
For show details, please contact (416)266-3456 or Info@1999Team.com

Q. If you’re against capitalism, what would you replace it with?
A. There’s no system that I would replace it with. I guess what I would do is take the best old capitalism, which rewarded one’s ideas; inventiveness and hard work.... I want that person to do well. And if that’s an incentive, all the better-for all of us.
Then take those things from socialism that got mucked up by Moscow and Bejing. Take those things of socialism that are actually based in democracy, where the people are treated equally and fairly,and try to behave in the moral code we say we have.

Eppadi Naan Tholaintheen?
The harsh wind was hitting my blank face as I stood on the side walk staring at the cars passing by. I was thinking about the conversation I had on the phone minutes before I left home. As I was running out the door the phone rang. Do I walk out or pick up. What the hell, I decided to pick up.
”Hello”
“Hello Kanni. It’s me!”
“Oom Sollungo”
“I need a favour. I need you to write me something”
“Sure. No Problem” ... In my head I was cursing myself for saying yes. What was I thinking? Write something... about what? How? It’s been so long since I have sat down and written something for vaikarai. I decided to worry about it later and ran out the door. Damn I’m late!
I took my usual walk from my house to the bus stop. While I was waiting for my bus, the thought hit me again. What do I do? I said yes, now I have to write about something. I look up, god finally it’s here. I get on the bus, pay my fare and turn around and the stares blind me. Every brown person on the bus turns and looks at me. They follow my leg from the front of the bus to the rear end. I could hear their thoughts. I could see their questions with my naked eyes. Questions they want to ask yet stay quiet. Is she Tamil? Could she be an Indian? May be she’s from somewhere in the islands? Is she from my country? It instilled the same anger that rushes to my face when people ask me where I come from. My first reaction is often a blank stare. Then they ask me again are you from the Caribbean’s. I give them another blank stare followed by a casual smile and “no.” NO! It doesn’t end there. Then I have to get into this process of justification for my no as if I offended them in some manner. Why do people need to know where I’m from? What is their need to relate to me? These questions have jumped out of my system in true anger many times. They have often met an ignorant blank stare. We all want to relate to someone, hoping they will give us the treasure map to finding our true identity. My situations and answers change from people to people. Let me play you a scenario of this same conversation when a Tamil person asks me.
When a Sri Lankan asks me where I come from. Obviously my answer is going to be Sri Lanka. The conversation would proceed as they maneuver towards the next question. Where in Jaffna are you from? With an uncertain felling I whisper it out with my Canadian Tamil accent as a vague map of Sri Lanka goes up in my head. I look at them for assurance that I have referred to the right place. Kadavule! No more question please! But they ignore my uncomfortable look and drop more questions.
“So do you know so and so?”
“No, I left when I was really young.” I could feel the water reaching my nose. A few more questions and I will be under water for sure. This is when I give my causal smile and look around for an escape route.

'Bearers of Culture' Cultural Adjustment and Tamil Diaspora Wom
1.0
Canada is home to community of ethnic Tamils, most of whom are refugees and asylum seekers from war-torn areas of Sri Lanka. Early settlers are now parents of a new generation of Tamil children, born and bred in Canada. Like all Diaspora communities in Canada, the Tamils too have a separate identity of their own. They are taking keen interest to preserve their roots, and in a process of creating a 'home' in 'exile'. Culture plays an important role in creating and preserving a unique identity for the Tamils.
Aanya Annapoornam aanya@vaikarai.com
As Tamils had fled from their homeland due to crucial ethnic conflict, most of them still encounter post-traumatic syndromes even in their migrated countries, which often lead to unstable daily lives. In addition, they also tend to face stress and depression resulted from settlement issues. The most significant problem of all is, Tamils, along with all the other migrated communities in Canada, often find themselves emotionally torn apart by conflicting cultural values. In comparison with men, this detailed study based on reliable statistics, references and personal interviews reveals how two distinguished cultures affect the Tamil women in a unique manner.
In order to identify the stresses the cultural adjustment cause, it is critically important to understand the differences between the Canadian and Tamil cultures. Tamils live a strictly observed, culturally bound life where the responsibility and burden of carrying out the culture is embedded on women. Women are expected to preserve their purity and serve as the bearers of culture. The culture place many constraints on their clothes, thoughts, behaviours and even on their existence. As we can find, every significant aspect of the Tamil culture - the language, food patterns (on whom the responsibility of the kitchen and dining room relies), clothing, values and beliefs and special events (especially the wedding and puberty ceremonies) - is focused on women. While on the contrary, the Canadian or the Western culture of the recent decades strives on maintaining equality and places less burden on women. It is believed that the industrialized life style, financial independence, and clearly defined laws play a major role in preserving the equality among men and women in Canadian society. To describe in a nutshell, the problem arises when a woman - legally committed to be dependant under a man is exposed to a society where she is expected to serve a dual role - a breadwinner and a housewife. Yet, this is just a part of the story. The issues of culture uniquely affect the women of different age groups.
2.0 Elements of Cultural Adjustment and Distinctive Impacts
Migration is a process that highly depends on and creates social networks. Most of the immigrant communities, which are too sensitive towards culture, often build their social networks in and around their cultural background in order to retain a sense of identity (Lyons, 2004: 14). In fact, the lives of Tamil diasporas had been characteristically developed through village identities of their homeland. Small organizations that bear the
-20- itfiw
name of a certain village in Jaffna peninsula often acts as the first socializing agent for most new Tamil immigrants. The heightening awareness and concern shown towards preserving and promoting this socio cultural identity in diasporic lives always comes with a greater cost. More often women than men become the victims to this constantly changing life patterns. The impacts of cultural clash significantly differ with women of different age groups. It also depends on the time they spent in their homeland. As this study categorize, Girls or Youths are more exposed to the Canadian environment with a less knowledge of their own culture, while Middle age women are those who have spent their early adulthood in their homeland and well accustomed to that environment with less exposure to the Canadian culture, Seniors - the most fragile group of all, would've spent most of their lives in Sri Lanka and would find this life a terrible misery. The study explores how the impacts of cultural adjustment differently reflect on them and how they can be minimized.
2.1 Girls, Teens and Youths
"Amita Handa's (1997: 253-274) study lends support to the idea that girls have aspecial role as bearers of culture in South Asian
communities, resulting in inter-generational conflict. The focus on protecting women's sexuality is tied to the protection of young women from the "ills" of western society. The young women in Handa's study knew how they had to behave in order to be accepted as "good" daughters who uphold their family's reputation while being loyal members of their ethnic community.

Dating and marriage are the other important th Asian
factors, which more often end up in disputes. Due to the gender stereotypes the elders of the Tamil community consider dating as a disastrous act that can harm a girl's reputation and always looked down at it. But 'many Tamil youth wish to date as soon as they reach their teens, as is common among westerners. Almost all parents reject this idea. Therefore, often dating is done without the knowledge of the parents. The pressure to avoid dating is greater on girls than boys. Parents often turn a blind eye on the activities of the male child but impose rigid controls on the female child' (Kendall, 1989:6).
In addition, daughters are commonly not allowed to select their own partners. Parents believe that it is their duty to select their daughter a suitable bridegroom. But daughters who were brought up in a different environment where dating is so commonly practiced, find very hard to get into a proposed marriage with a man whom they never knew. This clash of cultures leads to broken marriages, separated families and often leaves a deep unhealed wound in everyone's heart.
2.2 Women
Women who have spent their childhood and early adulthood in Sri Lanka can be included in this category. Members of this group who were brought up in an absolutely different environment and a strict life style remain more vulnerable to culture shock. As Kandasamy's study describes, many of them have never worn pants before, and avoid going out in winter. Despite their habitual life style of staying-at-home, in Canada they're expected to work in order to support their family. As most of them have less skills or work experience before, they always end up in working at factories and other places under very nerational

(Tyyska, 2004)
Most of the Tamil girls in this age group are born in Canada while some others have migrated in their early childhood. Hence, they have less knowledge of their own culture and more likely to follow their friends', schoolmates', and the culture of the society in which they live. When the strict nature of Tamil families tends to force them to follow certain values that conflict with the Canadian values, these girls feel torn apart between two cultures. Besides, they lose the sense of belonging which leads to severe depression and feelings of insecurity. Moreover, 'they also feel depressed because of their internal struggles with their own identity' (Kandasamy, 1995: 23). The loss of an identity - neither a Sri Lankan nor a Canadian - is a crucial factor that contributes to addiction and mental health problems and encourages the members of this age group to join peer groups.

dignity in front of her friends and relatives. The most interesting fact is that, as researches reveal, Tamil families in Canada show a great concern in celebrating an elegant puberty ceremony and more often the cost of such ceremonies exceed the amount that spent in weddings. It takes years for the parents to finally pay off the loans and at the time they get rid of the debit their daughters will be ready for the marriage. In contrast, this

3.0 Strategies to reduce the impact of cultural despair
In addition, most of the middle aged Tamil women have had less education and less knowledge in English. Lack of knowledge in English becomes a major barrier in accessing settlement and other services and achieving equality. Therefore, they always depend on their husbands or grown up children for their every needs. This dependency occasionally leads to abuses and discrimination against women. Though Canada offers numerous services and facilities to women who live
As Kandasamy's study (1995) defines, language is an essential need to survive in the Canadian society. Women of all age groups must be given an opportunity to learn English. Affordable classes and flexible time schedule are important to ensure whether every immigrant gets a chance. At the beginning phase the tutor must be fluent in both Tamil and English languages, and during the following phases an English-speaking tutor would be preferable.
under an abusive environment, language remains as a barrier to access those services.
Education is also another important factor that can change the lifestyle of a Tamil woman
Tamil men were raised to be dominant and protective, and physically disciplining their wives and children is accepted by the majority. When women challenge their expected roles, physical abuse increases. Some men are becoming heavy alcohol
immensely. As Dr. Kandasamy (1995) states, the skills and qualifications immigrants achieved in their countries should be recognized in the Canadian environment. Or they must be given an opportunity along with financial assistance to acquire similar Canadian

users. They tend to use alcohol, which adds to the severity of physical abuse. Alcohol use is freer in Canada than Sri Lanka and is increasing for all age groups.
qualification. Women need education in all aspects of their lives. They need to be educated of their rights and laws and also to help their children in their school works.
(Kandasamy, 1995: 21)
Employment is the only factor that can make a woman independent and self-reliant.
Since the men play a dominant role in a Tamil family, spousal abuse is commonly accepted. Men become more aggressive when children who tend to follow the western values challenge their roles. Since children are well protected by this society and have more knowledge of the laws and rules, men turn towards women to show their anger. And the abuse will only increase if the women started
Recent immigrants who lack Canadian education and experience can hardly find suitable jobs for themselves no matter how skillful they were in Sri Lanka. Women teachers, doctors and other professionals join in the manual labour force for they could not afford time and money to achieve the equivalent qualifications here in Canada while they have a family to support.
to protest. But nowadays, the women who have access to the outer world become intolerant to such abuses and as the Tamil society is strictly against the concept of divorce and remarriage, the number of separated families still keeps increasing.
Though all the facilities mentioned above were already available for immigrants in Canada, they remain inaccessible for many people. Most of the Tamil Diaspora women are simply unaware of those facilities. In order to make them accessible, settlement services should be extended to reach out

to technology, and find hard to survive in this environment, especially during the winter. Senior women usually enjoy a well-respected, prestigious life in Sri Lanka. They will be cared by their children, and daughters-in-law. They will have more time to spend with the relatives and neighbours, and more often act as the mediator who links all the extended families. But their life style in Canada is much of a misery. 'They spend most of their time alone or with young, grandchildren. They seldom get a chance to go out and socialize because they can't travel alone and their children are too tired, after a long shift at work, to take them out. Even if centers of seniors are available, household responsibilities and traveling difficulties will be significant barriers' (Kandasamy, 1995: 22). Most of the seniors are sponsored by their children only to look after the grandchildren and the household while both the husband and wife go out to work. As the cost of the day care centers seem quite hard to afford,
Since the Tamil women are considered as and expected to be the 'bearers of culture', they often become the victims of conflicting cultural values. Young girls are strictly observed and protected against all the ills of western society in order to preserve their good reputation at the cost of their freedom. Middle- aged women brought up in the Tamil culture go through an immense emotional torment to get adapted into the western environment, especially when it comes to clothing and working outside. Seniors, who have nothing to bind themselves with this environment except their children, lose the sense of belonging and all the dignity and prosperity of seniorhood, which they would've enjoyed if they were in Sri Lanka. This study further explored and identified the strategies to reduce the negative impacts of cultural issues and the significance of extended settlement services.
people have found out that this would be much more cheaper. At times even the seniors' pension will be taken away from the seniors in order to provide for their children's family. Moreover, lack of knowledge in English becomes a barrier in communicating with their grandchildren thus

Bharathanatyam for the girls and miruthangam for the boys. A step away is the keyboard, the most westernized we could even imagine to get. Our parents truly try to fit us into the bill. They teach us the language, the art and even the food. They want to be the same protective loving parents who show us the path and the line which we must not cross or else we will get lost. What they fail to realize is that our lives are just like the butterfly, to hold it too lose and we will fly away and a hard grip will kill us. The balance is the secret. It’s a secret!
Now, when people ask me where I’m from I instantly say Sri Lanka. I don’t know if this is because I find the need to justify with myself and my history, or because I want to joins hands with Tamil youths in the regaining of our identity, or whether this was heightened with the war. As I talk to more and more Tamils, I noticed there is something problematic about claiming to be a Sri Lankan. The tables have changed now. I know something which a lot of us are yet to find out. I will never be a Sri Lankan. Not the authentic Sri Lankan everyone claims to be. Just because I wear a sari, or I eat rice and curry that too with my hands, or speak this Canadianized
Chandra's Takeout Restaurant and Catering at 201 Markham Rd., seen in this image from Google's Street View, was fined $20,000 for health violations.
A takeout restaurant in Scarborough was fined $20,000 - the maximum penalty - after pleading guilty to four food-safety violations, including a "heavy" cockroach infestation.
IMAGE COURTESY GOOGLE STREET VIEW
The guilty plea last Friday by Chandra's Takeout Restaurant and Catering, at 201 Markham Rd., related to problems that closed it Aug. 24 to Aug. 28. It has since reopened and passed full inspections on Aug. 28 and Nov. 6.
The restaurant was fined $5,000 for each of four infractions: not controlling a pest/insect infestation; failing to protect food from contamination; not having a certified food handler; and for obstructing Toronto Public Health's red closure sign while the restaurant was shut down in August.
Jim Chan, manager of the Food Safety Program at Toronto Public Health, told the Star today that, when a health inspector visited the restaurant Aug. 24, live cockroaches could be seen running around the food preparation area. Also, meat and other perishable food was being stored at room temperature.
According to Toronto Public Health's
Scarborough eatery fined $20,000 over food safety
Tamil doesn’t mean I am a Sri Lankan. If I was to go to Sri Lanka today, I will be met with uncomfortable stares. Stares a foreigner is often given. That’s right, I have become the foreigner. People will laugh over my Canadianized Tamil (they will even have the sincerity to point it out), mock my body language and criticize my westernized way of being. This often happens to me here in Canada by my fellow Sri Lankans; hence we could only imagine what will have to me when I go to Sri Lanka. They would have already stamped me as the ‘other’, before I even try to change my ways for their acceptance. I am not one of them; I come from a foreign land. I get pushed to the outer realm before I could even try. We will never be seen as one of them. I know that all of you will deny this, but pause and take a second to ask yourself. That warm breath from deep down will tell you the truth. The truth we fail to see, the truth we run away from.
We can never be too white nor too brown. We run between two cultures not knowing what we want? What to choose? What is right and wrong? Which voice do I choose from the hundreds screaming in my head? When will I realize that I am just a piece of skeleton, the lost soul?
website, which posts the results of previous inspections, the restaurant also failed to provide hand-washing supplies to employees, or sanitize food preparation areas and utensils.
Chan said that when an inspector returned to the restaurant on Aug. 28, the problems that triggered the closure were corrected. He expressed surprise that a Justice of the Peace at the Toronto East Court Office hit the eatery with the maximum fine, particularly the $5,000 for not having a certified handler - an offence he says usually results in fines ranging from $200 to $1,000. But Chan welcomed the stiff punishment.
"This operator had been warned back in April," Chan said. "The inspector actually gave the operator quite a long time to get the certification done."
The fines "send a very strong message to food operators in general," he said.
It's not the first time Chandra's Takeout has run into trouble with public health, receiving two yellow conditional passes over the past 18 months.
On April 6, inspectors found it failed to provide adequate pest control, control food temperature and properly sanitize utensils and equipment. It passed an inspection April 9. It was also given a warning July 15, 2008 for pest and sanitation issues but passed an inspection three days later.
The restaurant is owned and operated by Chandrakathiyamma Anantharajah, according to its corporation profile, and has been in operation since 1995.
Anantharajah was not at the restaurant Monday night, and a woman who answered the phone refused to comment.
