Irish language gains popularity among US students

There is a nice short video on the BBC website about students in the US learning the Irish language.  If you want to learn Irish (aka Irish Gaelic) in the Ottawa region, contact the executive of the local Irish cultural organization, Comhaltas Ceoltoiri Eireann (Ottawa Branch), who offer classes in Irish language, dance, and host a monthly ceili (social Irish dance). Also, another group, Caint is Comhrá, offer Irish language instruction (not long ago they held a full day workshop).
