Winnifred Harvey became the first pilgrim from Ottawa and she was the only Western pilgrim at the time. She took copious (80 pages) notes, some in shorthand. She met with the Guardian over dinner seven times. When hearing that 40% of the Canadian population was French-speaking, the Guardian replied that the same percentage of Bahá’ís must be French-Canadians, or the Faith would appear to be Anglo-Saxon.
