A Concealment Of Genocide

Chris Fogarty asks:

Are Canadians; at least Globe and Mail readers, really defined by a vicious lie - a concealment of genocide?

"Folio: Irish famine; A tiny park to mark what defines us" (Globe and Mail; June 19, 2017, A8 and A9) perpetuates falsehood with dire implications for mankind. 

Consciences such as George Bernard Shaw (Man and Superman) denounced the "famine" label attached to Ireland's Holocaust* of 1845-1850. Our otherwise exemplary Marist Brother in Castlerea, Co. Roscommon was asked recently: "You now say 'genocide' why did you teach 'famine'?" - his tragic reply: "I had no choice; I had to teach the curriculum as provided by government."

Upon researching my grandfather's biography at Britain's National Archives I was shocked to find records showing that it took more than half of Britain's military to starve Ireland. Sixty-seven of its 130-regiment army, removed, at gunpoint, Ireland's abundant livestock and food crops to its ports for export, thus murdering approximately five million.

My book's fold-out map shows the locations of 180 Holocaust mass graves in Ireland; but we continue to document others. Exhibits C2 (1845 through 1850) show the dates that each named regiment entered and exited each Irish district during those six years. It records Lord Clarendon's 1847 statement: "But for the onerous duty of escorting of provisions (edibles) the army in Ireland would have little to do."

To put genocide permanently out-of-bounds as government policy we must cease encouraging mass murderers by concealing past and current ones.


*"Genocide" by historical precedence: The Cork Examiner newspaper (1847), Michael Davitt's published works (1847-1904); James Fitzgerald in his "The Causes of Irish Emigration..." (1911); Rev. Fr. Maguire of Sillers, Canada, upon the August 15, 1909 inauguration of the Grosse Ile monument; et al.


FYI: Knowing that newspaper editors do not open attachments I copy/paste here two small portions of my book.

From Exhibit A2: Some Holocaust Mass Graves Other Than Those Shown On The Map:

Prov. of Ontario: Toronto: Many thousands died during 1845-50, especially in 1847, in a tent city behind St. Paul’s (83 Power St.), a basilica built by an earlier Irish generation close to the disembarkation point.

The dead were buried in trenches adjacent to their tents. Unmarked. Now covered by St. Paul Catholic School, parking lot & playground, also by a City of Toronto off-leash dog toilet named Orphans Greenspace.

It was reported (Toronto Star; August 5, 2011) that that burial ground is also covered by the Don Valley Parkway overpass and probably extends south to Adelaide Street.

A dog toilet? Is the Orange Order that strong in Toronto? Are the Irish there that weak? This is reminiscent of the tourist guide at Edinburgh Castle some twenty years ago who, while pointing out the chapel of some Scottish Queen/Saint (Margaret?) told us all with obvious relish, that that royal, being a Catholic, was buried in the animal cemetery with the royal dogs, cats, and a donkey.

Toronto: A “Protestant Irish Famine Mass Grave.” Marked. (Location?)
