The face and hands on a statue of the Black Virgin Mary in Vanier have been painted white in what the city says is an unauthorized act of vandalism.
What the heck do they mean by "unauthored act of vandalism" Are some acts of vandalism authorized
It was first erected in 1955 by the Society of Missionaries of Africa, which used to own the land the park now sits on, according to Vanier Museopark. The priests were known as the White Fathers and chose the Virgin Mary as their patron saint in 1938.
I took these photos about ten years ago
Our Lady of Africa Pray, for us!
