Memorial Plaques

Robert Pickton Dept: Why plaques for these specific women, singling them out among the hundreds murdered over the last 25 years, critics will ask, according to Vancouver Sun. Too little, too late, another likely argument will go, as though the act of remembering were a zero sum equation - remember all or remember none and setting memorial plaques into Vancouver's Downtown East-side sidewalks to commemorate the lives of the women murdered and believed murdered by serial killer Robert Pickton is certain to generate a public conversation. Well, are these women less worthy of commemoration, say, than those murdered at L'Ecole Polytechnique? Or is social class the issue here? (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
