AbstractTranslation was part of the curriculum in the earlier years of the College, although it was seen in intellectual circles as a strategy for teaching other dominant languages, namely Greek and Latin. It thus remained an ancillary discipline for a very long time. The disappearance of the Classical Curriculum cleared the way for Translation to gain autonomy and expand as a discipline with the founding of the School of Translation in 1983, offering a Bachelor's degree and a Certificate program in translation. Some years later, the entire Translation Certificate curriculum was made available on line. The CUSB Translation School thus became the first translation school in the world to offer a complete distance-learning program via the Internet. Students enrolled in the program log on from Winnipeg, rural Manitoba, other provinces across Canada and even other countries around the world. With this openness to the world, the college can look forward to a bright future for its translation program. Translation has also played an important role in Francophone identity building in Manitoba. Openness to others and to other fields of endeavour characterizes both translation as a field and translators as people.

Given that their synagogue remains closed almost all year, that a real estate program threatens them with expropriation and that they are still too few in number to feel affected, how do the members of the Jewish community of Tarbes perceive their future? The synagogue tells the story of the fragility of this group which does not want to give up and tries to carry on a project in its space. The article seeks to identify the range of positions, adopted communally or individually, based on some aspects of their membership in Judaism, which are highlighted here. From indignation to resignation, with some reference to nostalgia, it is claimed there is still interest in a synagogue project, even if tenacity is capable of slowing down a possible relocation.
