Editor:
I was disappointed to see the choice of cover photo for last week's edition.
The Canmore grave yard is a special place to many Canmore residents both past and present.
I do not wish my loved ones resting place to be a backdrop for a fake ghoulish photo opportunity.
As a society, Canada now looks back with sadness at the disrespect shown to the sacred spaces of our Indigenous nations. Surely that respect must include our graveyards too.
I don't think it was done with any intentional unkindness, but a poor idea.
