The Liberal government’s decision to remove depictions of Canadian historic sites and events in favour of more generic national images in the newly designed passport represents a “sliding, eroding scale” in the country and an indifferent attitude toward preserving Canadian heritage, says Conservative MP Michelle Ferreri.
“Who thought it would be fitting or a good idea to replace historical images like Vimy Ridge with a squirrel and nuts?” she said during an interview with The Epoch Times on May 10, adding that the redesigned passport “sends a pretty significant message of what the [government’s] priorities are.”
