To the Editor,
Matthew Ostrove’s article on Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff’s comments in favor of building the Mosque on the sacred area close to the 911 atrocity is wisdom personified. It is comforting that even though Matthew wants to become the liberal candidate for a seat in Tuxedo , differences of opinion can be voiced freely.
I too think his suggestion of a Global Centre for Peace which includes all races and religions is the appropriate way to proceed. In a way it is likened to the Canadian Human Rights Museum not only a gift to Winnipeg or Canada but a creation benefiting the entire world. Three cheers for the Aspers and in particular Gail Asper whose amazing commitment and awesome energy saw to it this dream of her late dads happened.
Sincerely,
Hart Peikoff
