    Thank so much for this Film . It’s not always told just how desperate the time was. An Gorta Mór : The Great Hunger . A famine is an absence of food. Even during Black 47 thousands of atoms of food was exported from Ireland to England . The English passed a law forbidding the Irish from travelling to the coast for food & seaweed . Hence term Hunger An Gorta Mór Greetings from Bradford Irish Society in Northern England. Most of the Bradford Irish came from the Midlands because it was the Wool producing area of Ireland @ at the Time Bradford was the Wool capital of World Wool Trade and Fasted Growing City in Europe. Thank you Canada

      A chara, Buíochas as ucht do thuirim a roinnt. Feicim go bhfuil obair mhór déanta agat ar an ardán seo ag cur ábhair ar fáil d'fhoghlaimeoirí agus do chainteoirí Gaeilge. Molann an obair an fear, agus tréaslaím leat as do chion a dhéanamh, i réimse na foghraíochta ach go háirithe. Díol spéise dom mar sin féin do thrácht agus an blas soiniciúil air. 'Go mbeirimid beo ar an am seo arís' is a longstanding, correct saying and toast in the Irish language. Never have I heard, nor seen the suggested 'go mairimid'. "the 'dh' is silent" was not a generalisation but in reference to the pronunciation of the name 'Meadhbh' - in which it is indeed, silent. "Fada literally means 'length', he says". (sic. "lengthen"). Indeed, you are correct "long" is absolutely the meaning of "fada". The explanation was in relation to the meaning of the "Síneadh Fada" which serves to lengthen the vowel. A heinous error nonetheless! Tá líon na ndaoine atá sásta treabhadh leo i ngort na Gaeilge ag dul i laghad. Tacaíocht ar an ngannchuid b'fhéidir, ach coinnimís ár misneach.

    As a Canadian of Irish background, whose family would have arrived in this country around that period, I say THANK YOU! We always hear about the Irish in America (i.e. the USA) but rarely do we hear about our own Irish *Canadians.* The link between what was happening then and what is happening now, with refugees arriving from all over and for many reasons, and how they are treated well by some and badly by others, is thought-provoking and very appropriate.

    The composer must have spent much time learning composition as he has scored all the music! All the vocal parts, chorus interludes, stings, special Irish instruments, etc. Historical narrative parts are truly moving and absolutely true, and bring to surface the suffering the Irish people went through.. It is my belief that your musical presentation will be a big success and will be recognized internationally. Canada loves her Irish people and I think that this is a great lasting thing! A big thank you goes out to the composer, singers, instrumentalist, and those behind the scenes that made this musical journey possible.

    Bhí fear ann go raibh beirt mhac aige. Dúirt an mac ab óige lena athair, "Tabhair domhsa a bhfuil ag dul dom dod chuid." Do roinn an t-athair a chuid eatarthu agus d'imigh an mac ab óige go dtí dúthaigh iasachta mar ar scaip sé a chuid go baoth rabairneach. Nuair a bhí deireadh caite aige tháinig gorta ana-ghéar sa tír sin, i dtreo gurbh éigean dó réiteach le duine do mhuintir na tíre chun bheith ag feighil mhuc. D'íosfadh sé bia na muc ach ní raibh ceadaithe dhó san do dhéanamh. Do chuimhnigh sé gur mó lucht tuarastail a thuilleamh a bhí i dtigh a athar agus a ndóthain le n-ithe acu. "Raghadsa ag triall ar mh'athair agus déarfad leis mé a ghlacadh mar dhuine dá sheirbhíseachaibh." Tháinig sé agus nuair a chonaic an t-athair ag teacht é go hocrach giobalach tháinig ana-thrua aige dhó. Do rith sé ina choinnibh, do chas sé a láimh agus do phóg sé é. Ach dúirt seisean leis an athair, "Á, ní fiú mé feasta bheith mar mhac agat ach fanfad agat i measc na seirbhíseach eile." Dúirt an t-athair leis na seirbhísigh eile, "Tugaig libh an chulaith éadaigh is fearr agus cuirig uime í. Cuirig bróga ar a chosa agus fáinne ar a mhéar. Maraíg an gamhain ramhar dó. Glaoigis[1] ar na comharsain agus beam go sóch nuair gur fhill mo mhac slán." Nuair a bhí an deartháir críonna ag teacht ó bheith ag obair dh'airigh sé an ceol agus an rince. Dh'fhiafraigh sé dos na seirbhísigh cad fé ndeár an obair seo. Do nis duine acu dhó go raibh a dheartháir tagaithe agus gur mhairbh a athair an gamhain ramhar ar a shon. Tháinig tormas air agus ní raghadh sé isteach. Chuaigh an t-athair amach agus do luigh sé ar thathant air. Ach dúirt seisean leis, "Táimse ag obair duit na blianta so go léir. Níor thugas easonóir duit ná níor dhiúlthaíos d'aon rud iarrais[2] orm a dhéanamh agus níor mharaís oiread is mionnán riamh mar onóir dom. Ach nuair a tháinig mo dheartháir tar éis a choda a bheith anchaite aige do mharaís an gamhain ramhar dó mar is measa leat é ná mise." "Á, a mhic, arsa an t-athair, is leatsa mo chuid go léir. Bhís in éineacht liom i gcónaí agus níor dheineas aon ionadh dhíot. Bhí do dheartháir imithe chun fáin agus gan súil agam le hé a fheiscint beo. Anois, nuair gur fhill sé slán is cóir adhnó éigint a dhéanamh dó."

      Thanks Susan for watching the video. Yes, a good suggestion about having the names of those died remain on the screen longer. Alas, we're not able to change that on the video now, but their names are engraved on the benches in the park, and listed on our website: www.canadairelandfoundation.com/grasettpark/key_figures/ We also point out that these are the individuals we know about through historical research and records. It is possible there are others of whom we remain unaware.

    Aristocratic landowners in Ireland for the most part just wanted the problem -- poor starving tenants -- gone. So, off to the colonies you go, and it can become the problem of colonial settlers in Canada. For shame!
