Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Vancouver Finlandia Club : The Vancouver Finlandia Club was established in 1971 as a non-religious, non-political, cultural organization for Finnish Canadians. To a large extent, it was the product of the merger of the Suomalainen Kansallisseura (Loyal Finns in Canada) Association and the Vancouver Lodge of the United Finnish Kaleva Brothers and Sisters Federation. Among its major purposes, is the desire to act as a cultural bridge for Finnish Canadians in their relations with Canadian society as a whole and with Finland. Perhaps, the Club's most ambitious project to date has been to transform its newsletter, Tiedottaa, into a general-interest news monthly, Lansirannikon Uutiset, for the Finish community in Western Canada.
