How fitting
July 18, 2008
I wasn’t aware that there was a human rights monument in Ottawa. That said, I’m not at all surprised that it seems to be, in BCF’s incomparable turn of phrase, “a product of the ‘Turd in the Plaza School’.”

How very fitting indeed, that a monument to human rights in Canada should look like a confused, uninspired jumble of poorly-considered components, while at the same time invoking the image of tall walls and a dystopia. A more fitting commentary on the human rights commissions would be hard to ask for.
