On this episode of The Brian Crombie Hour, host Brian Crombie is joined by Bill Fatsis (Vasilios Fatsis)—retired Justice of the Peace, former federal candidate, community leader, and author of Not Looking for Trouble—for a powerful conversation on immigration, identity, politics, and the meaning of multiculturalism in Canada. Bill shares his remarkable journey from being born during the Greek Civil War, losing his father at a young age, and being separated from his family, to arriving in Toronto in 1966 and building a life through education, public service, politics, and community leadership. His story reflects resilience, sacrifice, and starting over in a new country. The discussion also explores his activism against the Greek military junta in the 1960s and 1970s, including organizing demonstrations in Toronto, engaging in Canadian political life, and running in the historic 1982 Toronto-Danforth by-election. He also reflects on working within the Bill Davis government and how multiculturalism in Canada has evolved over time. The conversation further touches on the legacy of composer Mikis Theodorakis—known for Zorba the Greek and Serpico—and how music can become a form of memory, identity, and resistance. At its core, the episode asks a deeper question: what does multiculturalism truly mean in Canada today?
