All people (including Hagar) that on earth do dwell Sing to the lord with cheerful voice. Him serve with mirth; His praise forth tell. Come ye (ye-all - including Hagar) before him and rejoice. (You need to read the section where Reverend Troy, who like the Trojan horse has the unexpected come from within, sings this famous hymn for Hagar, and she realizes and tells us, the reader, what she has always wanted from life, and what has always prevented her from achieving that which she wants.)
Tina Shipley of The Stone Angel is not a question. If your question is Who is Tina Shipley of The Stone Angel,then the answer is:Tina Shipley is the grand-daughter of Hagar Shipley, the protagonist/narrator of Margaret Laurence's novel. She is the younger child of Marvin, Hagar's elder son, and Doris, Marvin's wife. As a woman of ninety, Hagar lives in Marvin & Doris's home, but Hagar's grandchildren - Stephen and Chris(Tina) do not live, since they are grown adults. Stephen and Chris(Tina) are the great hopes at the end of the novel: Hagar is dead, Marvin and Doris will die, but Christina and Stephen (look up the meaning of their names) will live on and hopefully be part of a generation that avoids the terrible mistakes that Hagar makes.
Another title for this book could be "Hagar". Hagar, the book's protagonist/narrator is the Stone Angel, for she is doubly blind. She does not see what is inside, and she does not see what is outside.
Whatever you want it to be
It is an issue you really don't want to handle or get involved in or a person you really don't want in your life.

Hagar and Lottie plotted to separate their children who were in a relationship. Hagar felt Lottie's daughter Arlene was not good enough for her son John who was a true Currie. Lottie did want her daughter marrying Bram Shipley's son John. They contrived to send Arlene east to break up the relationship. John who had not been drinking for a long time began again and decided to cross the trestle in his car and he collided with the train. It was an unscheduled "relief" train. He and Arlene both died as a result of the crash. So in that way Hagar is directly responsible for John's death.
