Statue Belongs In A Museum

I fully support and applaud city council’s decision to remove the statue and use it as a tool to educate citizens about our past. It’s not acceptable to commemorate and memorialize a historical figure who actively sought to eliminate First Nations peoples. He certainly accomplished great things in other areas—no question. We need to understand both sides of this history, recognizing the achievements and the egregious harms that were carried out. Thanks to city council for your courage and for taking action after a very long wait for change!! Please do move forward with changing Dewdney as well.
