President’s Message Summer 2024
WELCOME! What a powerful word.
According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, it means to greet hospitably with courtesy and cordiality and to accept with pleasure the occurrence or presence of. There is a phrase “welcome with open arms”. How do we succeed in doing that? How can we at the Ottawa Women’s Canadian Club make you feel welcomed?
According to Matilda Walsh in her book “Life Skills” to make someone feel at home we do so by making them feel connected to members, by including them in chit-chat, by making them feel that they belong, by breaking through their comfort zone, by asking them about themselves, by starting a conversation, by being a good listener, by showing interest, by treating them as yourself. Be patient and friendly. Smile. Be yourself but most of all LISTEN! Building friendships takes time.
Come join us at the OWCC for a welcoming time/event. What an agenda we have for the 2024-2025 season. See you there. WELCOME!

Les gentils mots de nos membres.
Je pourrais écrire un livre sur le Canadian Club concernant l’importance qu’il a eue dans ma vie qui, dans à peine deux mois, atteindra 100 annes.
J'ai le sentiment que ma vie a bénéficié de ma longue association avec le Club Canadien et les amitiés qui ont commencé dans les années 50 se poursuivent aujourd'hui et sont très appréciées.
