🇨🇦🇮🇪 A powerful day of remembrance in Ottawa.

On June 14, bronze shoes were unveiled at Macdonald Gardens Park—marking their place on #GlobalIrishFamineWay

The bronze shoes honour those who fled famine in 1847 & the Bytown citizens who showed them compassion.

The event was a solemn and inspiring reminder of the enduring ties between Canada and Ireland, and the shared history that continues to connect our peoples across generations and oceans.
