Yesterday’s service, In Memoria, offered a quiet moment to mourn the many species of animals who have been exiled from the Halifax peninsula since the arrival of the first European settlers, and to consider our incompatibility with wildlife. The service was comprised of readings and a eulogy, as well as music provided by the Sacred Heart Audeamus Choir to whom I wish to extend my sincere thanks.
