Show detail Hide detail

Sointvlan S.S. Osasto No.7 (Sointvla, B.C.) : The founding meeting of the Sointulan S.S. Osasto No. 7 (Sointula Finnish Socialist Local No. 7 of Sointula, B.C.) was held on Christmas Day, 1907. The local immediately joined the Socialist Party of Canada, retaining its affiliation to this party until about a year after the establishment of the Finnish Socialist Organization of Canada (FSOC) in 1911. At that time, it joined this new organization which was later to evolve into the Finnish Organization of Canada. Sometime prior to 1950, the Sointula Local ceased to be active and came to be regarded as a defunct branch of the Finnish Organization of Canada.

The Keskusteluseura or "Discussion Group" of the Sointula FSOC Local was established as an integral part of the Local's educational, cultural and social programme. Members of the Keskusteluseura were invited to prepare speeches on various topics. Speakers were then graded on both the content and delivery of their talks. The Keskusteluseura flourished between 1915-1918.
