Professore Luciano Soligo: Una Storia di Famiglia e Vita tra Veneto e Toronto
The purpose of this assignment is to learn and understand the journey and experiences of those in the Italian Canadian community. This includes their stories about growing up in Italy and immigrating to Canada to pursue certain goals. On October 17th, Professore Soligo and I met in his office at Brock University in St. Catharines around 1pm for his interview. In this case, Professore Luciano Soligo who was born in Toronto spoke about his story of moving back to Italy as a 7-year-old and then coming back on his own at 18 to pursue a better life for himself and family in the future. I was able to ask and learn a lot about his parents, how they met and Prof Soligo’s childhood in both Toronto and Italy. Also, his Parents experiences and thoughts of Canada after having moved here initially and then back to Italy. Furthermore, I learned about Prof Soligo experiences with schooling in both Italy and in Canada then his work life as a teenager to where he is now. Lastly, his take on being "Italo-Canadese" as well as his deep love for Italy that has him torn between his feelings of where "home" is.
