Edralin family videos : tricycle
-
Description
-
Item consists of a Filipino-Canadian family's home movie featuring a child and adult holding hands and walking, and a child riding a tricycle. Donor(s) and project contributed description follows: "Martin’s little sister and his mom are walking by Martin’s elementary school, Metropolitan Andrei Catholic School on Mississauga Valley Blvd. The school is located right by their home across highway 10. The Edralins lived at this residence until Martin was around 10 years old, and then moved further west to Erin Mills. The family moved because his mother wanted a bigger detached house with a bigger lawn. There is a community of Filipinos in Mississauga, and growing up, the Edralins had a close-knit group of family friends. In 1983, when the footage was taken, there were no condos in the neighborhood. When Martin used to attend Francis Xavier Secondary School at the intersection of Mavis Rd. and Matheson Blvd, there was a farm across the street. Demographically, the neighborhood has changed immensely. At his elementary school, there were about three Asian families, four black kids who were brothers and the rest of the children were white. Martin shares that he grew up in Sauga at a time when there wasn’t a lot of POC, and recalls sticking out at his elementary school. He dealt with a lot of racism but doesn’t necessarily think of his childhood as a bad experience. Although the comments weren’t hateful, but rather "kids being kids," "anything that makes you feel different hurts." It wasn’t until middle school and high school that his environment became more diverse. It was still predominantly white but all the non-white people were sort of grouping together, and there was comfort in having others around who identified with each other’s experience, and who were not quite fitting in with the majority."

-
Description

Item consists of an Indo- and Black-Carribean family’s home movie featuring a women and a child picking grapes from the pergola. Donor(s) and project contributed description follows: "Shanti’s sister’s farm is a treasured place in their family’s collective memories. With 90 acres of land, the farm was a beloved retreat to the country for the Toronto family. In the footage, Leyla can be seen showing her picked grapes to her mother. Above them, Shanti’s mother picks grapes from their pergola. Having recently started ballet classes, Leyla is wearing a pink ballet outfit complete with her own tutu. Endured by her outfit and feeling affection, Leyla is hugged by her grandmother. At almost 4 years old, Layla and her grandmother are preparing the lights (diyas) for Diwali. In the Caribbean, the diyas would be lit outside the home, but since the family lived in an apartment the practise was kept to inside the home. Carefully, Leyla is guided in helping her grandmother. Her mother was a retired nurse to prepare for the holiday. Leyla grew up watching her grandmother during her daily prayers and helping on Diwali. In rare form, Shanti is in front of the camera. As the family documenter, Shanti is usually the one behind the camera. Dressed as a witch, Shanti can be seen posing with her daughter who decided to go as a fairy princess this year before their evening of trick-or-treating."

The two elder gentlemen are Jagtar’s future father-in-law Sardar Mewa Singh Kular and father Sardar Hardev Singh Dhaliwal. Here his father is visible in a pale blue suit not far from Sant Ji. This home movie memorializes these two important figures in Jagtar’s life who have since passed, his father-in-law and his father. After his father’s passing, Jagtar says it was fate to see his father here and remember him as a young man. In the next scene, Jagtar is in his ancestral village in Toosey, Punjab, India dressed in his wedding attire. As they are leaving, elders and family women offer their blessings by giving him sweet treats.

After both sides of the family arrive, the fathers meet and exchange garlands. The uncles at each level exchange an official introduction. Then people gather for tea and refreshments just before going to the Gurdwara, a place of worship. The groom’s side of the family pays respect to the Guru Granth Sahib, a living embodiment of the Sikh’s gurus."

Edralin family videos : slide
-
Description
-
Item consists of a Filipino-Canadian family's home movie featuring children climbing up and coming down a slide. Donor(s) and project contributed description follows: "At a neighborhood park, close to their townhome on Mississauga Valley, Martin and his sister aged 4 and 2 are playing on the slide, and filmed by their father. The languages spoken are Filipino and English. It looks slightly overcast, and the children are wearing light jackets, so it could be in the Fall or Spring season. One memory that stands out about playing on the slide for Martin is that the metal felt really hot on the skin in the summer. Martin and his sister would often go to the park and play together whenever their parents allowed them, but they were never unsupervised. Growing up, Martin only had one cousin who lived in Canada who lived near Pape Station, and then Markham. He spent a lot of time playing with his sister. There is a community of Filipinos in Mississauga, and growing up, the Edralins had a close-knit group of family friends. In 1983, when the footage was taken, there were no condos in the neighborhood. When Martin used to attend Francis Xavier Secondary School at the intersection of Mavis Rd. and Matheson Blvd, there was a farm across the street.

Piedrahita-Budiman family videos : Scarborough Bluffs beach and barbeque
-
Description
-
Item consists of a Colombian and Indonesian-Canadian family's home movie featuring a day at the lake with children playing and adults barbequing. Donor(s) and project contributed description follows: "The year is 1999 and Sabrina Budiman aged 4, and her family is spending a day at the beach in the summertime, at the Scarborough Bluffs beach. Sabrina and her sister call it "ethnic BBQ" because the family brought their own charcoal BBQ, make lots of delicious food, fry up some fish and "stink up the place." A picnic table is set up with a beautiful tablecloth, and the footage documents an entire day spent at the beach. Sabrina shares that this experience was a large part of her childhood, and today we often see lots of immigrant families gathered at the Bluffs Beach in large groups with similar set-ups that include lots of food and colorful decorations. Sabrina carries a mixture of three cultures which she says felt a bit confusing: "It’s something you feel but can’t analyze as a child. Feeling it has more impact. It means that I’m a part of a larger group of people who share the same experiences, although it varies from person to person. Others have had the same struggles, successes, and personal experiences.""

Piedrahita-Budiman family videos : celebrations and dancing

Description

Item consists of a Colombian and Indonesian-Canadian family's home movie featuring a family gathering filled with adults and children playing and dancing. Donor(s) and project contributed description follows: "Sabrina Budiman’s sister, cousins, aunts, and neighbors grew up as a very close knit family. They are at a family gathering likely at Budiman’s aunt’s place in Etobicoke, ON. The table is set up for a special dinner, and everyone is dressed in celebratory clothing. It’s a party and we see adults and children having a lot of fun dancing together to Lou Bega’s Mambo no. 5, J-Low, Backstreet Boys, and Elvis Crespo’s Suavemente 1998. Being both Colombian and Indonesian and growing up in Toronto, Sabrina remembers dance as a very memorable and significant part of her cultural upbringing.

It means that I’m a part of a larger group of people who share the same experiences, although it varies from person to person.

Dhoré family videos : hugs
-
Description
-
Item consists of an Indo- and Black-Carribean family’s home movie featuring a girl giving a woman a hug. Donor(s) and project contributed description follows: "Shanti’s sister’s farm is a treasured place in their family’s collective memories. With 90 acres of land, the farm was a beloved retreat to the country for the Toronto family. In the footage, Leyla can be seen showing her picked grapes to her mother. Above them, Shanti’s mother picks grapes from their pergola. Having recently started ballet classes, Leyla is wearing a pink ballet outfit complete with her own tutu. Endured by her outfit and feeling affection, Leyla is hugged by her grandmother. At almost 4 years old, Layla and her grandmother are preparing the lights (diyas) for Diwali. In the Caribbean, the diyas would be lit outside the home, but since the family lived in an apartment the practise was kept to inside the home. Carefully, Leyla is guided in helping her grandmother. Her mother was a retired nurse to prepare for the holiday. Leyla grew up watching her grandmother during her daily prayers and helping on Diwali. In rare form, Shanti is in front of the camera. As the family documenter, Shanti is usually the one behind the camera. Dressed as a witch, Shanti can be seen posing with her daughter who decided to go as a fairy princess this year before their evening of trick-or-treating."

Edralin family videos : tennis : adults
-
Description
-
Item consists of a Filipino-Canadian family's home movie featuring two men playing tennis at a park. Donor(s) and project contributed description follows: "Martin’s grandfather and neighbor, who is also Filipino are playing tennis together. There is a community of Filipinos in Mississauga, and growing up, the Edralins had a close-knit group of family and friends. In 1983, when the footage was taken, there were no condos in the neighborhood. When Martin used to attend Francis Xavier Secondary School at the intersection of Mavis Rd. and Matheson Blvd, there was a farm across the street. Demographically, the neighborhood has changed immensely. At his elementary school, there were about three Asian families, four black kids who were brothers and the rest of the children were white."
