Honouring the Pioneers

Yesterday's mural is found in the Portuguese Pioneers Parkette on College St. The park honours the 50th anniversary of the large numbers of Portuguese people who settled in the area in the 1950s. The garden in the parkette honours Jose Mario Coelhe who was very active in the community.

    So many of us have come from somewhere else. Good to be reminded of that, especially in these times.

    Our European-based cultures have gained so much from our immigrants.
