Victoria Mayor Lisa Helps says the city has no intention of getting rid of the Sir John A. Macdonald statue that was recently removed from the steps of city hall, after the Ontario government wrote asking about acquiring it.Well, as long as that's what the citizens of Victoria said they... sweet baby jebus...
City council voted in favour of the removal, as part of reconciliation efforts with local Indigenous communities.
Mayor Helps said the larger community wasn't consulted on the removal of the statue because that conversation would have been "very narrow" and yielded "not very useful dialogue."**********
