to quote "Homey the Clown" I don't think so!

Viimane kord kui meie ühiskond põhiliselt kokku tuli. Hoia Jumal Eestit? Kas ühiselt koondume jälle lipu alla, ühes mõttes kunagi?
that there are so few who identify themselves as Estonians. I can assume that this is why many years ago, a study which was done to look at the feasibility of building a new Estonian House on Broadview found that at that point in time, the size of our community did not justify the investment it would require. (Someone older told me this recently)
Curious whether anyone remembers that study. I think that they said it was done by Ernst and Young. Is it available somewhere to read?
I have not been able to find the feasibility study which was done before plans began to build the new centre. I am actually considering doing part of my graduate work on the centre and the Estonian community. Who did the research of the Estonian community and how was it discussed in the community?
My prof wants me to talk to members of the community. Any suggestions? Who came up with the idea and who are the leaders of the project?
I am in my late 20s and did not grow up in the Estonian community in Toronto. My mother is Estonian but my father is Greek.
I am considering doing my graduate work on the Estonian community focusing on the centre. It would be very interesting to read more about the background work which was done and the research of the community and its needs before the centre was designed,
Communities in the diaspora are complicated and fragile. What have the obstacles been and are there any interest groups which are more enthusiastic than others. What has been done to ensure that everyone benefits from a new centre.
So many questions, but I need to do research before finalizing the focus of my work.
In other words, is there enough material out there to do this work.
Thank you in advance!

You should post an email address. I am sure that members of the Estonian community will contact you.
Interesting that you are half Greek. I knew a few Greeks when I lived in Toronto. Their community has really hung on to their language and culture. I knew some who were fluent Greek speakers and had never been to Greece. Part of their strength may be that there are many Greek-run businesses so they are able to speak their language at work, unlike most other ethnic groups. I Know of very few businesses where Estonian is the language of communication.
