LETTER

Chaudière Falls

 

Why is it that Canadians will readily throw their arms up in the air in disgust when a synagogue or a mosque, such as the one in Peterborough, Ontario, is vandalized, yet when an Indigenous sacred place, such as the Chaudière Falls and the three Islands downstream (on the Ottawa River), is further desecrated, rather than re-naturalized to its former holiness, Canadians don’t give a damn?
