Many music festival-goers make a lot of very questionable sartorial expressions.
Most are harmless, but some are outright tasteless.
Like sporting a First Nations headdress, a spiritual and cultural symbol of native culture, as a fashion accessory.
Which is why Montreal’s Osheaga festival, Canada’s top showcase of musical talent, has decided to ban wearing them altogether at this year’s edition.
Per Facebook:
Please note that First Nations Headdresses are not permitted at the festival. The First Nations Headdresses have a spiritual and cultural meaning in the native communities and to respect and honour their people, Osheaga asks fans and artists attending the festival to not use this symbol as a fashion accessory.
Thank you for your understanding and your cooperation.
Cue the applause.
