J\u2019ai eu l\u2019honneur d\u2019assister \u00e0 la c\u00e9r\u00e9monie annuelle de la Croix celtique, tenue au pied du canal Rideau pr\u00e8s du Mus\u00e9e Bytown. Chaque ann\u00e9e, cet \u00e9v\u00e9nement significatif rend hommage aux milliers de travailleurs et \u00e0 leurs familles qui ont construit le canal entre 1826 et 1832. Beaucoup ont perdu la vie au cours de ce chantier.<\/p>\n

\"\"Le monument, d\u00e9voil\u00e9 il y a 21 ans, demeure un rappel durable de leur sacrifice. Le canal Rideau est non seulement une merveille d\u2019ing\u00e9nierie, mais aussi un symbole de pers\u00e9v\u00e9rance et de solidarit\u00e9 communautaire. Il a \u00e9t\u00e9 construit \u00e0 la main, dans des conditions difficiles et souvent dangereuses.<\/p>\n

La c\u00e9r\u00e9monie de cette ann\u00e9e marquait \u00e9galement les 193 ans du d\u00e9but de la construction et les 18 ans de la d\u00e9signation du canal \u00e0 titre de site du patrimoine mondial de l\u2019UNESCO. Ce fut un moment important pour r\u00e9fl\u00e9chir \u00e0 l\u2019histoire humaine derri\u00e8re l\u2019un des monuments les plus embl\u00e9matiques d\u2019Ottawa.<\/p>\n

\"\"Les orateurs comprenaient Chlo\u00e9 Dennis du Mus\u00e9e Bytown, Thomas O\u2019Neill de l\u2019Irish Society de la r\u00e9gion de la capitale nationale, et Se\u00e1n McKenny du Conseil du travail d\u2019Ottawa et du district. Chacun a contribu\u00e9 \u00e0 mettre en lumi\u00e8re l\u2019h\u00e9ritage des travailleurs. J\u2019\u00e9tais \u00e9galement accompagn\u00e9 de mes coll\u00e8gues du conseil, les conseillers Brockington et Kavanagh, ainsi que de nombreux membres de notre communaut\u00e9 irlandaise locale et de r\u00e9sidents de toute la ville.<\/p>\n

Je suis reconnaissant au Mus\u00e9e Bytown de perp\u00e9tuer cette tradition ann\u00e9e apr\u00e8s ann\u00e9e, et \u00e0 tous ceux et celles qui ont pris le temps de venir honorer les vies et les r\u00e9cits qui ont contribu\u00e9 \u00e0 fa\u00e7onner notre ville.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
