A world and a lifetime apart: N.S. woman discovers half-sister across the Atlantic
Sheila Kennedy, 76, of Nova Scotia and Carole Sanderson, 65, of England are half-sisters. But they didn t know the other one existed until last year. Now, they re waiting out the pandemic so they can finally meet in person.
Social Sharing
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau shared remarks through a pre-recorded statement, saying he wished he could have attended the service. Even a year later, I know there is no comfort for the anguish of having an adored parent or precious child torn away, he said, standing in front of a row of Canadian flags. So all I can say is this: You are not alone. All Canadians stand with you and grieve with you.
The prime minister described one of the worst mass shootings in Canadian history as an act of evil that should not define the memories of those lost on April 18 and 19, 2020.
