Dear Pat, This is an opportunity for Goans to be heard, and I hope one or more of the Missassaugan Goans will carry the banner and wave it, long and hard. I see the writer's perspective partly due to ignorance but mostly the world evangelizing the Church. The publisher of the tabloid should hear in no uncertain terms of the loosely composed prose that offends so many of his readers, and more important Bikram Lamba be educated with the truth, one on one. Walking away with shrugged shoulders is not an option. I tried to find the publisher's e-mail address but had no luck.
