Po ukończeniu szkoły podstawowej podjęłam naukę w liceum ogólnokształ- Ucącym w Tarnowie. Po zdaniu egzaminu dojrzałości dostałam się na studia w Wyższej Szkole Pedagogicznej (dziś Akademia Pedagogiczna) w Krakowie. Lata moich studiów zbiegły się z trudnym okresem w historii Polski – okresem „Solidarności” polskiego społeczeństwa, walczącego z ustrojem komunistycznym. Okres ten, zapoczątkowany wprowadzeniem stanu wojennego i trwający do końca lat 80-tych, wpisał się w karty historii emigracji jako okres wzmożonej emigracji soli- darnościowej. Kryzys gospodarczy, napięta sytuacja polityczna i brak jakichkolwiek perspektyw na przyszłość, zmusiły tysiące młodych ludzi do opuszczenia swego kraju i podjęcia trudu emigracji w poszukiwaniu wartości demokratycznych, opartych na wierze katolickiej i stawiających godność człowieka za cel najwyższy. W 1987 roku, po trzecim roku studiów, wyjechałam do Niemiec (wówczas Niemcy Zachodnie) śladem mojego męża (wówczas narzeczonego), który rok wcześniej wyje- chał z Polski, również przerywając studia (Politechnika Krakowska). W 1988 roku, dzięki ks. Piotrowi Sanczenko, przyjechaliśmy do Windsor. Rozpoczęliśmy nowe życie w kraju, który dał nam wiele możliwości. W 1990 roku urodziła się nam córka Anna. Jednak początek lat 90-tych zbiegł się również z recesją gospodarczą w Windsor. Zdecydowaliśmy się więc na wyjazd do Edmonton (1991 r.) Lata spędzone w Windsor były dla nas bardzo ważne gdyż to właśnie tam rozpoczęliśmy dorosłe życie, wypełniając obowiązki rodzicielskie, rozwijając się zawodowo i asymilując z nowym krajem i społeczeństwem. Mieliśmy okazję poznać wielu wspaniałych ludzi, m.in. ks. Wawrzyńca Wnuka, ks. Piotra Sanczenko, ks. Zbigniewa Rodzinkę, S. Urszulanki i panią Marię Chodorowicz, która zawsze służyła radą i pomocą młodym emigrantom.

  • Essex Windsor Regional Transportation Master Plan
    ESSEX-WINDSOR REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION MASTER PLAN Technical Report IBI Group With October, 2005 Paradigm Transportation Solutions Essex-Windsor Regional Transportation Master Plan MAJOR STUDY FINDINGS & EXECUTIVE SUMMARY PART 1: MAJOR STUDY FINDINGS Official Plan policies of both the County of Essex and the City of Windsor acknowledge that comprehensive regional transportation policies and implementation strategies are needed to effectively address regional transportation needs now through to 2021. This is needed because during this time period, the City and County combined are expected to grow by about 92,000 more residents and 53,000 jobs. The location and form of this growth will have a significant impact on the capability of the existing transportation system, and specifically the major roadway system, to serve the added travel needs. Coupled with this is the overall background growth in trip-making throughout the Essex-Windsor region, and the amount of cross-border traffic moving through the region. This is why the regional transportation plan has taken a very integrated transportation/land use planning approach, with as much emphasis on demand-side issues such as trip-making characteristics and travel mode choice, as on the more traditional supply-side alternatives dealing with major roadway widenings and extensions. The transportation planning approach used in this study emphasizes the integration of land use and transportation planning in Essex-Windsor region. Continued regional growth will put pressure on strategic parts of the transportation system, reducing its ability to move people and goods safely and efficiently in these parts of the region. Other transportation system needs will continue to grow in response to growth in international cross-border traffic, and are addressed more specifically in the Lets Get Windsor-Essex Moving initiatives, the Detroit River International Crossing Study and the Windsor Gateway Report prepared for the City of Windsor by Sam Schwartz Engineering PLLC and released in January 2005.

    Sabotage, Security, and Border-Crossing Culture: The Detroit River during the First World War, 1914-1918 BRANDON DIMMEL* This paper examines sabotage, security, and the Detroit River region’s border- crossing culture during the First World War. It finds that deep social and economic transnational relations in the years prior to the war meant few Windsor residents demonstrated any concern that they might become the target of German Americans, or “enemy aliens”, based in Detroit. And while these people were blasted out of their naïveté in June 1915, when the surrounding community was rocked by an explosion at a nearby uniform factory, over time fears associated with the border and Detroit’s German population subsided at the local level. The result would be confrontation between Windsorites and the federal government, which in the years following the attack attempted to impose strict border-crossing regulations on a traditionally permeable section of the international boundary. Le présent article porte sur le sabotage, la sécurité et la culture du passage de la frontière dans la région de la rivière Détroit au cours de la Première Guerre mondiale. Il fait ressortir qu’à la lumière des profondes relations socioéconomiques transnationales existant au cours des années d’avant-guerre, peu de résidents de Windsor auraient pensé s’inquiéter d’être la cible potentielle d’Américains d’origine allemande - sujets d’un pays ennemi - établis à Detroit. Tirés subitement de leur naïveté en juin 1915 lors de l’explosion d’une fabrique d’uniformes, les habitants de Windsor se sont remis sans tarder de leurs craintes liées à la frontière et à la population allemande de Detroit.
