I was really sad to see that someone would complain about the incredible work of Brother Paul at the Esquimalt Lagoon, as the signs beside each sculpture calls him.

I read the article on how Victoria recorded 85 overdose deaths last year. Unfortunately this did not surprise me, but I did make a sad connection.

It was a public ceremony to allow all to grieve together. It was an acknowledgement of the loss from the whole community and from ourselves.

I will add my thanks to the wonderful people who drive cancer patients to relevant appointments around Victoria, a service which I have used and a cause to which I gladly donate.
