RE: Montreal Yiddish

[Mel Korn <mkorn...>]

Well at least former Montrealers! I wonder how many are here in Toronto,
which also has a vibrant Yiddish culture, although noy quite what it was in
Montreal. As for those 78's..I am going to have to go looking now..they must
be in someone's basement.

Wow, so many Montrealers here :)

 Both my parents grew up speaking Yiddish as well as a good deal of their
friends - and most of them attended public school. It's no wonder that one
can still find nice collections of Yiddish and Cantorial 78's just lying
around in people's basements in Montreal.
