A pumper truck, two cement mixers, a barge and a tug at Grace Islet Thursday.

    For those of us who are following this story, Grace Islet was a First Nations burial ground, this is a disturbing image.

    Agreed. And yet is presented here as a Salt Spring Island photo, a news event; an unusual image.

    An unusual image indeed… but they should have left the place alone.

      Hmmm….right you are, hard to see on the web but there are two side by side near the Peggy Mackenzie and one behind, then the pumper.
