Turk Broda's father's name was Kazimierz, only a Polish or Lithuanian name! As a Polish -Canadian who grew up amongst a much larger Ukrainian community I've never heard an Ukrainian named Kazimierz. Kazimierz and Stanislaw are the two most common Polish Christian names because both are Polish Roman Catholic Saints; it would be sacreligous for an Ukrainian Greek - Catholic to give that name to their child! Walter "Turk" Broda's brother's name was Stan, the other most popular Polish christian name! Walter's relatives have written into websites that state he's Polish and his relative writers have never said he was Ukrainian! Stan and Kaz are Roman Catholic Saints (Polish), some flickin hunch, you people are being dupped! 205.200.78.196 ( talk) 14:54, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
Stan Obodiac was a Polish-Canadian, so it seems his saying Turk Broda was Ukrainian is gospel! My Dad who was 100 % Polish and of distinguished Polish noble descent, whose ancestors were more east of the majority of most Ukrainian-Canadians was horrified when a Polish neighbour who came from central Poland made him feel like an outsider. Dad had to defend himself against Ukrainian kids in his area who resented him speaking his ancestoral tongue of Polish. What I'm saying on a first hand basis, Dad whose family descended from Polish noble patriots who moved east, were considered by some central Poles as non Polish! This incident sickened me as noble Poles who immigrated to the east borders, amongst Ukrainian and other ethnic Poles, gave up their lives to defend this constantly attacked area.```` Dad's Polish neighbour made him feel outside the Polish mainstream. As a kid I felt anger over this absurdity, Dad's people were Polish patriots who gave their lives defending Poland's eastern border. As a Polish- Canadian I am proud of Stan Obodiac but understand his point of view (don't agree with it). ```` — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.72.212.111 ( talk) 15:28, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
There seems to be a dispute. On one hand we have a book on Ukrainian Canadians about a Ukrainian Canadian, citing a primary source verification and noting that the Polish rumors were untrue. On the other we have a book on Polish Americans with no page number or physical verification. The latter book was published in 2011, the former 1983, but this shouldn't matter seeing as Broda died in '72. Canadian primary source > off-topic discussion in an American Polish book. -- Львівське ( говорити) 03:09, 9 April 2014 (UTC)
Why delete the contemporary references stating that he was Polish? He was listed as Polish alongside 3 other players in that article I cited. Pola.mola ( talk) 21:03, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
