Member Review
Although I have also been a journalist and a prose writer, as a poet, which is my true vocation, my sense was that poets, while feeling a strong alliance with other poets, also need to join the general community of writers. The Writers’ Union of Canada has given me this support.

Erno Delano Rossi
Erno Delano Rossi was born in a shack by the railroad track where he listened to the trains roll by. Some would try to huff him, some would try to snuff him, and some would try to spit in his eye. He was born in Port Colborne, Ontario--the maritimes of Niagara--in time to watch the mass migration of homeless people on boxcars during the 1930s. He was also born in time to cringe in terror for six years at the slaughter of World War II. He was educated on the chlorine gas and blast furnace of INCO to pay for his B.A., which he earned at McMaster University. He has also obtained an M.A. at Michigan State. At his own expense--while history department head at Port Colborne High School--Rossi has travelled the world. A bestselling author and poet, he appears in the Who's Who of American Poets and Writers.
