Dè air an do bhruidhinn thu aig Buaidh Chruinneil na h-Alba? - Jim Hunter

Dearbh-aithne: AB_SGI_03_JIM_HUNTER_Q_03 TUAIRISGEUL: Mar phàirt de Thilleadh Dhachaigh 2009, chaidh co-labhairt eadar-nàiseanta trì latha - Buaidh Chruinneil na h-Alba - a chumail ann an Taigh-chluiche Eden Court, Inbhir Nis, bho 22-24 Dàmhair. Thàinig sgoilearan, eachdraichean is eòlaichean eile còmhla gus deasbaireachd fhallain a bhrosnachadh mu eachdraidh imrich agus a' bhuaidh a bha aig muinntir na h-Alba thall-thairis. Rinn Am Baile agallamhan le grunn luchd-labhairt rè na co-labhairt. San earrainn chlaistinnich seo, tha an Proifeasair Jim Hunter a' freagairt na ceiste: "An urrainn dhut cunntas goirid a thoirt air na rudan air an do bhruidhinn thu aig a' cho-labhairt?" 'Well I, I spoke about at the conference this morning, as you would have heard, perhaps, about the, really looking at the, I suppose, in very shorthand terms, looking at the experience of those Highlanders who didn't emigrate, but making contrasts between them and the emigrants. And also putting forward the view that, and I believe this very strongly, that in recent times the Highlands have turned a corner and after having been on a downward path for a long, long time are now arguably on the up and up and can look forward to a pretty good future. And so I was trying to strike, as I always do in these contexts, an optimistic note about the present and the future, as opposed to sort of dwelling on the undoubtedly rather miserable past.'
