Vey self-conscious of what they perceived as their own precarious and questioned role in Canada, I believe there was a secret shame -- besides the mind-blowing ignorance -- that those that had perished had in my Mother?s execrable words ?gone like lambs to the slaughter, without a fight?, and reflected badly on Canadian Jews. It really wasn?t until the Eichmann trial in 1961 and Wiesel?s book ?Night? (1960) that the word Holocaust and full discussion of the horrors experienced became common place Gerry
