Sir John A McDonald

You cannot change history only learn from it. The City of Victoria took down his stature but did not change their name. If Sir John A. supported colonialism, Queen Victoria was an unrepentant imperialist and colonialist.It’s shocking that such progressive politicians can think well of themselves while keeping the city’s name honoring such a racist, imperialist and colonialist as Queen Victoria.

As to his stature in City Park. Maybe the City would consider putting on a scarf each year for a period of time. Sorta like a Christmas Decoration. I do not think there would be much objection and it beats vandals doing it and causing damage. A "Knit The Scarf" campain could be held in the fall.
