A broken statue of Lord Ganesh. Was found dumped on the parking lot of Oakville museum.

Hope immigration Canada will take care of this immigrant from India (deemed a minority in his birth country and a visible minority in the country of immigration).

If we are in trouble God saves us but if God is in trouble who would save him ?.

Halton police are scratching their heads after a 500-pound statue appeared in the parking lot of the Oakville Museum on April 3.

Police had to call in the Oakville Road and Works Department to move the 3-foot tall statue, resembling the half-elephant half-man Hindu God, Ganesh.

The statue, missing two arms, is now being housed in the Halton Regional Police Service Property Bureau.

“It certainly is unusual,” said Sgt. Peter Hodgson.

“We really want to know if somebody can recognize and give us an idea as to how it got here, because we certainly don’t have a clue,” he said.

This was a good opportunity for a christian god or muslim god to save a hindu god who is a guest in this country and set a beautiful example for humans. Another opportunity missed, God Sir ! Tussi great ho !

As an agnostic, I just find the concept of ditching the idol ridiculous. Losing his two hands (with no fault of his own) makes him a विघ्नकर्ता instead of विघ्नहर्ता. The idol no longer serves your means so you ditch it.
