Valerian Ruminski looks contrite. There’s been a kerfuffle in Ottawa. Conflict is a common occurrence in Canada’s national capital, but this time it’s not about politics. Or is it?
An American bass named Valerian Ruminski arrived in town to rehearse for a production of Puccini’s Tosca, presented by Opera Lyra Ottawa, in which he was cast as the Sacristan. And a few days ago, he posted on Facebook a photo and some caustic remarks about someone he saw on a local bus. The subject of his abuse, a man later identified as Jade London, had jewels glued to his fingernails.
