Victorians banged the drums for emergency relief in Japan during introductory workshops on the weekend conducted by members of the Uminari Taiko. The workshops held March 19 at Euro Studios on Cook Street raised $1,335 for the Red Cross Japan Earthquake / Asia-Pacific Tsunami fund. The event was part of the Victoria Nikkei Cultural Society’s fundraising efforts for the people of Japan. “Some readers of the Diversity Reporter may already be aware that Victoria has the distinction of being the
long-time home of Manzo Nagano, who in 1877 became the first intentional Japanese immigrant to Canada,” said Jacob Derksen, a founding member of the Uminari Taiko ensemble. Victoria also has the distinction of being the the city where the great Japanese pacifist, Dr. Inazo Nitobe, passed away while enroute to Japan from a conference in Banff, said Derksen. He said even in death, Nitobe — who sought to be a Continued on page 2

Japanese societies in Victoria band together for relief overseas Diversity Reporter staff A group of four Japanese organizations in Victoria is banding together to raise funds for emergency relief. At a meeting last week, members of the organizations plotted a course of action to help the victims of the massive earthquake and tsunami in Japan that to date has left nearly 20,000 people confirmed dead or missing. The local groups realized they could achieve more working together than apart. They include the Japanese Friendship Society, Victoria Nikkei Cultural Society, Victoria Morioka Friendship Society and the Victoria Japanese Heritage Language School Society. Each group has a unique mandate - but have worked with one or more of the other groups in the past to achieve a common goal. Representing a broad range of skills and talents, they are confident it will help make this group work efficiently.
Many individuals in the community have been moved to do something for the victims of the disaster in Japan. One such example is Marc Bolli, a local Victorian who is married to Midori from Japan and owns Mega Screen Productions, a print shop in Victoria. They have two children, both who are bilingual and students in the VJHLSS. Even though Midori’s family in Toyama is safe because of the distance from the disaster, they wanted to do more to help. In addition to a personal donation, Marc and Midori’s close friend, Jackie Dogue and the VJHLSS designed a t-shirt and the following slogan that this new umbrella group has embraced as their name and identity.
The Japanese characters read “Gambare Nippon”, which loosely means “Never give up, Japan!”. The Support Japan 2011 group will organize various events, from craft and bake sales to silent auctions, dinner func-
tions and tea ceremonies to benefit the relief effort. The goal is to reach as many people as possible and to incorporate aspects of the Japanese culture. We hope that Victorians can use the group as a resource to learn more about the country that they are helping to rebuild. The group is setting up a trust account at Island Savings Credit Union and will work through the Consul General of Japan in Vancouver, and organizations on the ground in Japan to ensure the most effective use of funds. The group announced the dates and venues for their first three fund raising initiatives as well as acknowledging several other events from the groups’ individual members.

Victorians bang the drums for emergency relief in Japan Continued from page 1. bridge across the Pacific — laid the foundation for Victoria’s eventual sistercity relationship with his hometown of Morioka in Iwate Prefecture. “It may help your readers to visualize just how grave this disaster is if they bear in mind that among the hardest hit areas are Rikuzentakata and Miyako, both in Iwate prefecture.” He said Rikuzentakata, a town roughly the size of Langford, and Miyako, a city with a population base similar to that of Courtenay, have both been literally wiped off the map. These towns are closer to our sister city Morioka than Nanaimo is to Victoria. “What’s more, the Fukushima Daiichi (nuclear power station) so much in the news is roughly equi-distant between Tokyo and Morioka, about the distance from Victoria to Campbell River in either direction.” Derksen has been to Japan fives times in the past several years to study Japanese drumming, including several trips to Morioka. Other events on the weekend included a 24-hour “Pray for Japan” even organized by a group of women called “Sunshine Ladies” at the Oshio College of Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine on Yates Street in downtown Victoria.

British Columbia supporting Red Cross relief efforts in Japan Diversity Reporter staff British Columbia is giving $500,000 to the Canadian Red Cross in support of emergency relief in Japan. The Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General Shirley Bond announced the province’s response to the magnitude 9.0 earthquake and subsequent tsunami that struck near the East Coast of Honshu on Mar. 10, killing thousands and leav-
ing thousands more without basic necessities of food, shelter and clothing. “British Columbia has a history of supporting countries that face catastrophic events and these funds will help provide immediate medical and emergency support for the people of Japan during this terrible tragedy. We are also encouraging all British Columbians to consider reaching out through aid agencies like the Red Cross to provide further help,”
said Bond. Kimberly Nemrava, the Red Cross’s provincial director, said the agency was very grateful for the support from the B.C. government for Japan. The province also contributed to the Red Cross relief efforts after the Asian tsunami in 2004, the earthquake in Sichuan, China, in 2008 and last year’s earthquake in Haiti.

VICTORIA — The province will spend $58 million more on education in the coming year to help complete the transition to full-day kindergarten. School districts in British Columbia are expected to receive a record high of $4.72 billion in operational funding, which means more than $24 million invested in K-12 education every school day, said Minister of Education Margaret MacDiarmid. “In the coming school year, we’re increasing the basic allocation amount provided for every student by $44. This gives districts more money up front, allowing them to plan budgets more effectively and address cost pressures they’ve identified,” MacDiarmid said.
She said per-pupil funding had grown continually since 2000-01. The latest increase, which brings it to $8,357, will finally make full-day kindergarten available for all students. Despite declining enrolment in many districts, funding protection ensures that no district will receive less funding for this September’s enrolment count that it did in the previous school year. There are approximately 557, 282 fulltime equivalent students attending public schools in the province this year, an increase of about 951 full-time students. The increase is primarily due to the implementation of full-day kindergarten, which be available to all five-year-olds this September.
Minimum wage is going up to $10.25 Diversity Reporter staff Premier Christy Clark is raising the minimum wage in British Columbia as one of her first acts to “put families first” since being sworn into office. Clark announced the minimum will increase in stages to $10.25 by May 1, 2012 and the training wage will be eliminated, providing more support for workers and families. “Raising the minimum wage and eliminating the training wage is a fair and reasonable step forward in putting families first and building our economy. “This increase could mean more than $4,000 additional dollars annually for a full-time employee,” said Clark. The premier said business owners have said they need time to adjust to increases in the minimum wage, which is why the province is introducing the increase in stages. The general minimum wage will increase on May 1 this year to $8.75 per hour and rise to $10.25 by May 2012. As of May 1, the training wage will be
repealed and all hourly paid employees will be entitled to the general minimum wage regardless of how long they have been in the paid labour force. A special minimum wage for liquor servers will also be phased in, beginning May 1, 2011. It will be modelled on what now exists in Ontario for employees who serve liquor directly to customers or guests in licensed premises as a regular part of their work. “We consulted with stakeholders and economic experts on their views about increasing the minimum wage. As a result of those discussions, it was determined that job impacts are minimized when minimum wage increases are done incrementally over time,” said Stephanie Cadieux, Minister of Labour, Citizens’ Services and Open Government. “Our approach to liquor servers will be in line with what already exists in Ontario. In that province, the alcohol server rate has allowed the general minimum wage to increase while maintaining and supporting jobs in the food and beverage service sector.”

OPINION
That Don’t Make It Junk Brennan Storr The world has finite resources. I know this because for the last decade Al Gore & Michael Moore have been living in my television making frantic, bearded love while David Suzuki teaches them about “the nature of things”. I know because of the lingering sense of guilt I feel every time I drive the car to work. I know that every time I throw away a Cola can a village in the Congo is burned to the ground while white hunters chase aluminum wildebeests through the embers, taking their hide for foil wrap and their organs for pie plates. I know all this so I separate my plastic and my glass & only watch television programs with recycled jokes. And when
I have a household item that is of no particular use to me I have learned to “freecycle” rather than throw it away. What is freecycling? It is the practice of taking things you no longer need and leaving them at the curb because they will take up too much room in your trash. There is also a website, www.freecycling. org, where you can advertise your surplus of hemp sweaters to penniless Australian snowboarders. Back home when we no longer had any use for a household item it was donated to Uncle Troy’s raccoon habitat. Of course it was more a sprawling kingdom of rusted-out appliances kept on his property ’for parts’ than it was actual animal refuge. Still, we humoured Troy because being able to send our half-working toast-
ers and microwave ovens his way meant no one in our family had to buy extra garbage tags from city hall. The city bylaw inspector finally put an end to the practice when his Jude son was attacked by a raccoon in Troy’s yard. No charges were filed, mostly because Jude had been sent by the inspector himself to drop off an unused bread maker. Freecycling is a far more elegant solution but it is not without problems. For example, every box of free cookware I see out on the street corner has a mouldering sofa somewhere in the vicinity to keep it company. This says to me that some people do not understand the distinction between “freecycling” and “littering”. If you have purchased a new set of crockery and your old set is still use-
able, leaving it in a box marked “free” is “freecycling.” If your sofa is so decrepit that it has taken on the odour of dead men then leaving it at the curb because “it’s better than throwing it away” is “littering”. It is sometimes okay to throw things away. Recycling is wonderful and we should try to do so whenever possible but certain things are meant to be junked after a single owner. Small items should be thrown by hand into a “dumpster”. Larger items need to be brought to the town dump. If you don’t own a truck, that’s fine, make friends with someone who does. If you are unable to find someone with a truck then there are a number of services in every major city that employ thicknecked men named Otis who specialize in shifting heavy things. They will charge for the privilege but it’s a small price to pay for ensuring your neighbourhood doesn’t look like Uncle Troy’s yard. If you’ve ever been bitten by a raccoon you’ll know how valuable this really is.

Anthem Man on Eric Clapton
Carole James, MLA
Anthem Man When a conversation turns to history’s great guitar players Eric Clapton is mentioned very quickly. Since the early 60s, “Slowhand” has been entertaining, teaching, and exposing the general public to the guitar and its capabilities. He has been on the forefront of rock ‘n’ roll and the blues since he stepped into the spotlight all those years ago. Clapton played in many bands before becoming a solo artist. Groups like Cream, the Yardbirds, and Derek and the
Dominos were topping the charts and the concert circuit largely due to Clapton and became legendary themselves. He turned the world onto the “unplugged” spin 20 years ago when he took some classics and stripped them to the essentials. That album, 1992’s Unplugged, won multiple Grammy awards and created a monster. Soon everyone and their neighbour was recording an “unplugged” album of their biggest songs but few had the impact of Clapton’s. Listen to Derek and the Domino’s original 1970 version of “Layla” and then the 1992 unplugged version - you get the best of two very dif-

Premier Clark slims down cabinet VICTORIA - Premier Christy Clark is working with a new, smaller cabinet focused on putting families first, creating jobs and changing the way British Columbians engage with their government. “Our new cabinet will reflect the priorities of British Columbians and put families at the centre of all our decisionmaking,” said Clark. “Together, we will focus on creating jobs and building a strong economy because that is the single most important thing we can do to support families and ensure we can invest in critical services like health and education. This is a team that will work hard to ensure that prosperity and opportunity extend to every region of our province.” The new cabinet is made up of 17 ministers plus the premier, reduced from the previous total of 24. This includes the new Ministry of Jobs, Tourism and Innovation, which will bring together many of the functions in government focused on job creation under a single ministry. As well, three new cabinet committees reflect the priorities of government - the Committee on Families First; the Committee on Jobs and Economic Growth; and the Committee on Open Government and Engagement. Responsibility for colleges and universities has been recombined under the Ministry of Advanced Education; responsibility for mining has been returned to the Ministry of Energy and Mines; Labour and Citizen Services have been combined; and Forests and
Lands has been combined with Natural Resource Operations. The new cabinet appointed and sworn into office by the Lieutenant-Governor in a ceremony today is: * Premier - Hon. Christy Clark * Deputy Premier and Minister of Finance - Hon. Kevin Falcon

New regulatory body to crack down on crooked immigration consultants
Canada to refocus on resettlement of refugees Diversity Reporter Immigration minister Jason Kenney says Canada will put greater emphasis on resettling refugees from camps and urban slums around the world and will end its “ineffective” source-country refugee status. As part of changes being introduced under the Balanced Refugee Reform Act, immigration officials here plan to work closer with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, other resettlement countries and private sponsors in their efforts to identify refugees in greatest need, said Kenney, Minister for Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism. He said the government will expand its resettlement program by 20 per cent to help more refugees in camps and urban slums. “Since the source-country class is not working as it was intended, we plan to repeal it in order to refocus our settlement efforts on refugee situations where needs are the greatest, such as Iraqi refugees in Syria and Bhutanese refugees in Nepal,” said Kenney. Canada currently resettles one out of every 10 refugees resettled around the world, and that commitment is increasing with the new measures we have introduced,” added Kenney. The source-country class was intended to be a flexible tool for humanitarian intervention, capable of responding to a variety of situations. The objective of the class was to provide resettlement assistance to people who were in need of protection, but who were unable to leave their countries and were therefore not receiving international protection under the mandate of the UNHCR. Canada found the source-country class too restrictive because it applied only to people in countries listed in the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations.
In order to change or add a country to that list, a regulatory change was required, which was a lengthy process. As a result, the source-country class was an inflexible tool that did not allow the government to respond to emerging situations. Overall approval rates in the program were low. In Colombia, for example, the approval rate was estimated at less than 10 per cent, demonstrating the program inefficiency, and raising the question of how resources could be better spent. CIC found it was processing nine cases before finding one that merited Canada’s protection. By working through the United Nations, however, over 85 per cent of all cases are approved. By repealing the source-country class, the resettlement program will be streamlined to focus on partnerships that can deliver protection to those who are most in need. “The UNHCR appreciates the measures Canada has taken to make more resettlement spaces available for UNHCR resettlement referrals, recognizing the large number of refugees around the world in need of protection through resettlement,” said Abraham Abraham, UNHCR representative in Canada. Kenney said Canada’s commitment to refugee protection remains strong. “We recently agreed, at the emergency request of the UNHCR, to resettle a group of 50 Vietnamese Montagnard refugees who had been under risk of return to Vietnam. We are working with the UNHCR to resettle up to 5,000 Bhutanese refugees from Nepal and we have extended our commitment to help Iraqi refugees for an additional two years.” The total number of Iraqi refugees resettled to Canada by 2013 is expected to exceed 20,000.
Canadian immigration minister Jason Kenney says a new regulatory body to oversee immigration consultants will help protect the integrity of the system. Kenney announced the appointment of the Immigration Consultants of Canada Regulatory Council as part of the federal government’s commitment to crack down on crooked consultants and protect prospective migrants and the public against immigration fraud. The Canada Gazette’s website published a notice on March 19 informing the public about the proposed changes to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations. The amendments will be open for public comment for 30 days before final regulations are published. The new regulatory body follows the minister’s announcement in June last year that the his department intended to launch a transparent public selection process to find a suitable body to regulate immigration consultants. Consultants are currently regulated by the Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants. However, reports of the standing committee on citizenship and immigration in 2008 and 2009 identified governance issues and a lack of public confidence in the society. “I anticipate that the Immigration Consultants of Canada Regulatory Council will
not only help ensure public confidence in the integrity of the immigration program, but also that immigration consultants provide their services in a professional and ethical manner,” said Kenney. A selection committee was established to examine all submission received following a public process requesting submissions from parties interested in being the regulator of immigration consultants. The committee reported its conclusions to the minister. Based on these conclusions, the ICCRC was proposed as the regulator best placed to govern immigration consultants. The new regulatory council committed to a number of initiatives to foster a culture of transparency and openness in order to protect the public and especially those using immigration consultant services. These include a hotline for members of Parliament for complaints and questions and a public awareness campaign. Kenney raised the issue of immigration consultant fraud in meetings with officials in China, India and the Philippines last fall and more recently in Pakistan. He has urged those governments to protect their citizens from exploitation and abuse by crooked immigration consultants.

The Last 15 Seconds
March 23, 2011
13
Using powerful imagery and a visceral physicality, The Last 15 Seconds explores the topic of terrorism. It starts from the tragic death of Syrian-American filmmaker Mustapha Akkad and his daughter Rima in a series of co-ordinated attacks that hit three prominent hotels in the Jordanian capital Amman in 2005. The work constructs an imagined physical and verbal dialogue between Mustapha Akkad and Rawad Jassem Mohammad Abed, the suicide bomber who carried out the explosion. The work also looks at the imagined lives and memories of both the victim and his killer as they revisit each other’s lives after their fatal encounter. The Last 15 Seconds was presented by Intrepid Theatre as part of its Jan - Apr Season in association with MT Space and Puente Theatre. Akkad is the creator of The Message: the Story of Islam, and Lion of the Desert, two of the most prominent films that depict the greatness of both Islamic faith and Arab culture. Akkad saw these films as a way to bridge the gap between the Western and Islamic worlds, stating in a 1976 interview, “…being Muslim myself who lived in the west I felt that it was my obligation, my duty to tell the truth about Islam. It is a religion that has a 700 million following, yet there’s so little known about it which surprised me. I thought I should tell the story that will bring this bridge ... to the west.” Majdi Bou-Matar, the show’s director and co-creator talks to Intrepid Theatre’s Sammie Gough about using the lens of theatre to examine the human impact of terrorism.

Memories of Madras Easwaran family introduces Victoria to South Indian cuisine BY BARBARA BROWN
R
aj Easwaran wants Victorians and tourists alike to savour the hot, aromatic curries of his native south Indian cuisine. You can discover the fragrant memories of Raj’s childhood in the former city of Madras when you visit the India Curry House at the foot of Fort Street. “One of the things we wanted to do was introduce the southern Indian cuisine to Victoria. There was an opportunity to do that because there was no other restaurant operating with this cuisine,” said Easwaran
The motivation to open a restaurant came after his parents, ‘Easy’ and Jaya Easwaran, retired a decade ago and decided to join their son in Victoria. “It was something that both my parents and I had been wanting to do. It was a bit of a passion in terms of cooking and our cuisine,” said Easwaran The menu at the India Curry House identifies hot and extra-hot dishes, but also has medium-heat for more timid taste buds. The ever-popular butter chicken and tandoori dishes are prepared, along with goat curry, which is a rare find on a menu in Victoria. In addition to the distinctive
India Curry House is located at 102-506 Fort Street. Call 250-361-9000
“Whenever we talked to our friends or had a dinner party, people would always say, ‘Oh, we wish we could get this locally. We would like to go and eat that.’” In the old city of Madras— now called Chennai — Easwaran grew up on such perennial favourites as dosa, a rice and lentil crepe, which can be served a number of ways but often with a tamarind-based stew called sambar and coconut chutney. South Indian cuisine comprises the traditional fare found in the southern-tip states Tamilnadu and Kerala, along with Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh just to the north. The southern region has rice as a staple in contrast to northern India, which favours flat breads. Another common feature, says Easwaran, is the use of lentils and spices, including dried chillies and fresh green chillies, coconut and native fruits, along with vegetables such as tamarind, plantain, gourds, garlic and ginger. Easwaran was raised in a typical South Indian home with a large extended family, including grandparents and lots of children running around at special family meals. As a young man, he was the first in his family to migrate and went to England to be educated, specializing in information technologies. He worked in the Middle East for a time before moving to Canada in 1996. Two years later, he married Subah, a woman from back home. They have two children.
South Indian fare that features dosas prepared in a variety of ways, the restaurant offers a selection of Indo-Chinese dishes. Easwaran points to a number of items on the menu that are gluten free and says there are plenty of vegan options too. His family acquired the restaurant a year ago in May from a family that had offered north-Indian dining for more than two decades at the same location. “The wonderful thing about this particular restaurant was that it already had a very strong clientele base, having been in existence for 20-odd years. “The family that we acquired it from, we had a very friendly relationship with, and we could see the pattern of the seasons. Of course, Victoria being a seasonal town, and us being located downtown, we are a seasonal business. But overall, I should say, we’ve have been pleasantly surprised. We’ve had a very positive response. Easwaran and his mother are the chief cooks and guide the menu. This summer, they plan to introduce some of the fastfood items (chaat) that so popular on the streets of big cities such as Mumbai and Delhi. These are tangy Indian snacks that might include a quickly grilled tidbit or small potato patties filled with spicy vegetables. “Of course, we will be serving it here in the restaurant but in India, it would be out on the street,” said Easwaran. “The presentation will be similar to tapas, with little finger foods that you can share.”

Davison reflects on his career after retirement
The World Cup was a mixed bag for Canada. A nice win over Kenya and a poor outing against Zimbabwe were draped around some good moments and some trying moments for the inexperienced associate nation against the best in the world. “Our bowlers did a fantastic job throughout the tournament,” captain Ashish Bagai said. “But our batting let us
down in the first half and it was very hard for us to recover in the second half.” After Canada was defeated Wednesday by defending champion Australia, the Canadian players all saved a congratulatory hug for John Davison, who made this his final match after announcing his retirement on Tuesday. The 40-year-old who was born in Campbell River, B.C., made 14 runs off 12 balls, took one wicket, and made the catch to send Ricky Ponting on his way. A life-long resident of Australia, he will continue his coaching duties there. But as the man who has been Canada’s most recognizable name in the cricket world exits, it’s up to some promising kids to carry the program forward. Hiral Patel, Zubin Surkari, Jimmy Hansra, and Nitish Kumar, who all had roles in Wednesday’s match, lead the transition of Canada’s national team from one depending exclusively on cricketers trained elsewhere, to one where players trained at home can compete at the highest level. “We have some young guys on the side,” Bagai said. “The guys got some self-belief out of this tournament. Patel and Hansra had some good spells out of this so hopefully they’ll be able to take something away from the experience.” Unfortunately, it isn’t known yet what direction the team will be going. It has a string of associate tournaments and there will be some additional twenty20 opportunities coming. But with the ICC planning a test nations-only World Cup in 2015, Canada’s next chance at the sport’s highest level may not be coming for a while.

Francophone family recognized for contribution to local culture Diversity Reporter staff VICTORIA —A local francophone family with roots in James Bay is being recognized for its contributions to the culture as part of this year’s provincial Francaphonie Day celebration. John Les, Parliamentary secretary to the Premier, presented Terese Cote and her extended family with a commemorative plaque and showed a short video depicting her family’s legacy in Victoria during a ceremony at the legislature. In 1945, Cote’s father, Joseph Henri Cote, and his wife, Ida Camille Demers, settled in the city and began promoting the francophone culture in the community. They were active in the French Catholic parish and helped build a community room next to the church. The family took an active part in protecting Victoria’s historical St. Ann’s Academy. The family eventually purchased four house on Douglas Street not far from the Parliament buildings. The homes were subsequently renovated and used as rental apartments and are still a vital part of the James Bay neighbhourhood. The commemorative plaque unveiled at the celebration will be installed in an
accessible location on the family’s property. “For six decades, Joseph Côté and his family have in their own small corner of the province contributed to a rich and vibrant francophone community legacy,” said Les. Today is our opportunity to tell their story, demonstrating the close French community linkages with the province’s economic, social and cultural life.” Dr. Real Roy, président, Fédération des francophones de la Colombie-Britannique, said: “As Francophones, we are particularly proud to honour the Côté family for their dedication to their community. Since the arrival of the first European settlers, Francophones have contributed to the rich fabric of BC’s society especially here in Victoria. We are happy to see this contribution officially recognized.” There are more than 290,000 French speakers in B.C. and currently more than 40 francophone associations and organizations in the province. British Columbia has joined Canada and 55 countries around the world to formally recognize March 20 as International Day of the Francophonie.

Accommodate Japan The nation of Japan faces an unprecedented crisis. Hundreds of thousands of Japanese citizens have been forced from their homes, first by earthquake, then tsunami and now nuclear disaster. On Wednesday, March 16, I posted a message on the social network Twitter offering my spare bedroom to house at least 2 survivors of the disaster. At the same time I suggested that others do the same, not only here in Victoria but around the
world. Since then, numerous Victorians have contacted me offering their homes as well. Financial aid alone will not be enough to help the people of Japan - accommodation will be an absolutely vital part of the aid package. I believe we need to a global list of open-hearted citizens willing to share their homes with those displaced by the crisis in Japan. To achieve that end we have created the
Facebook page Accommodate Japan as a virtual meeting place where those in need of shelter can find places to stay. If you or anyone you know can provide temporary shelter to Japanese citizens in need please post your contact details on the site. For those of you in touch with loved ones at home in Japan, please direct them and the people they know to the page so we can help find them a place to be comfortable and safe.
www.facebook.com/accommodatejapan In times of crisis we must pull together and extend any and all help we can. Open your hearts and your homes and help us accommodate Japan. Thank you, David Malysheff www.gamutproductions.com

Terrorism Re-framed Through Theatre Critically acclaimed multi-cultural company MT Space are bringing their new play, The Last 15 Seconds to Victoria on March 1820 as part of Canada-wide tour. Majdi BouMatar, the show’s director and co-creator talks to Intrepid Theatre’s Sammie Gough about using the lens of theatre to examine the human impact of terrorism. Q: What was the original inspiration behind creating the Last 15 Seconds? The irony and absurdity of the event were my inspiration. I was fascinated by the fact that Mustapha Akkad was so concerned with correcting the image of Islam to the west and almost dedicated his life to promoting a good image, and yet he was killed by a Muslim extremist. The other layer into this is that Mustapha Akkad was the creator of Halloween horror franchise that became a brand of onscreen violence. Again what is Akkad’s responsibility in his own murder, and what is our responsibility when it comes to violence consumption. Q: How have audiences reacted to the play so far – both in the Middle East and here in Canada?
Audience have reacted on both emotional and intellectual levels. People found the play to be very moving, and at the same time it compelled they felt to learn more about the underlying politics of the Middle East. Q: Why did you choose the story of Syrian-American filmmaker Mustafa Akkad as the focal point for the play? Because he is very much like me: an immigrant, an artist and a dreamer. Q: The play is co-created by six artists. How did this collaborative process of writing the play work and what did each individual artist bring to the process? We always create collaboratively. I find theatre by its very essence an art of collective creation. Creation comes first and then the writing. The play goes from the stage to the page. The actors are the real creators. They create with their own bodies and voices. The Director is more of an editor and the playwright mostly documents, however with such editing and documenting come a lot of creative input.
Q What do you think is the importance of using theatre to examine taboo subjects such as suicide bombing? Theatre to me is a tool for community building and social justice. Its value is in its capacity to steer communities towards equality, diversity, and human
dignity. From here theatre becomes the medium where we have to tackle the taboos. Theatre permits us to collectively be vulnerable — cry, laugh, feel weak or angry! It is the place where we encourage each other artists and audiences to overcome social taboos!

簡惠芝並不光彩的當官紀錄 校午餐經費,她就是參與決策者 之一。
新民主黨黨領白瞳恩 (Dawn Black) 卑詩自由黨選出新黨領簡蕙芝,她 將在本月稍後宣誓成為卑詩省長。 在祝賀簡蕙芝當選之際,我亦要表 達對她是否真有心改革的懷疑。 公眾需要注意的是,簡蕙芝是 2001年卑詩自由黨競選政綱的共 同起草人,自由黨的政綱造成往後 十年,大幅削減貧困家庭的服務, 醫療和教育水平下滑。 HST說一套做一套,人民還記憶猶 新,過去十年卑詩自由黨政策反覆 不定,我們都看在眼底,當然更不 會忘記,卑詩自由黨很多壞決策, 簡蕙芝都擔當著重要角色。 簡蕙芝與金寶爾的政綱,承諾不會 出售卑詩鐵路,保障弱勢兒童,改 善病人照料,支持課堂學習─結果 所有的競選支票都沒兌現。 本周最引人矚目的事件,就是新西 敏市的皇家哥倫比亞醫院,被迫在 咖啡店內治療病人,以及素里的學 生走上街頭,抗議教室過分擁擠。 醫院和學校人滿為患,只是簡蕙芝
和金寶爾未能兌現承諾的嚴重後果 之一。卑詩省的經濟同樣面臨嚴峻 考驗,我們的失業率是大西洋省份 以西最高,在全國面臨經濟不景氣 時,卑詩人民是最弱勢的一群。 我們的兒童貧窮率一直是全國最 高,人民無法再相信這個政府會說 實話。 面對各種挑戰,簡蕙芝的做法還是 跟金寶爾一樣。她拒絕為卑詩鐵路
