“Communal Living in Canada: A Thing of the Past?”
Subheading: Adedeji, a former actress, shares her thoughts on the changes she’s observed in Canadian society since the 1990s.
Summary: In a recent interview on the Talk to B podcast, Adedeji reflected on the shift from communal living to individualism in Canada. She attributes this change to the influx of immigrants and the increasing focus on material wealth.
Key Quotes:
- “The trust has changed… Now there is less trust in people, I remember back in the 90’s, there was communal living and we just continued on as if we were in Nigeria,” Adedeji said.
- “Back then, your friends were like family, but these days, because of the crowd, there are a lot of people who don’t trust others. Now people don’t trust each other as much and people will disappoint you and because of that, communal living is being ripped apart gradually.”
- “A lot of people are migrating and the world is changing so people are so money conscious and nothing goes for nothing anymore and it’s the reality that we are faced with,” Adedeji said.
Context: Adedeji’s comments come as a reflection of broader societal changes in Canada. The influx of immigrants has contributed to a more diverse population, but also to increased competition and individualism. The shift away from communal living is a concern for many, as it can lead to feelings of isolation and disconnection.
Analysis: Adedeji’s observations highlight the impact of societal changes on community dynamics. While individualism can bring benefits, such as increased economic mobility, it also comes at a cost. The erosion of communal living can lead to a lack of social support and a sense of disconnection among community members.
Adedeji’s comments serve as a reminder of the importance of building and maintaining strong community ties. As society continues to evolve, it is essential to prioritize the values of communal living and foster a sense of belonging among community members.
