City Council voted 7-4 in favor of a motion which calls for broad public consultation on the future location of the monument.

A familiar bronze face in Victoria Park is to be removed.
Regina city council has voted in favour of putting the statue of Sir John A. Macdonald into storage until a new home for it can be found.
“It’s a very difficult decision but at the end of the day the feedback from the marginalized communities that the engagement was undertaken with was fairly clear,” Regina Mayor Sandra Masters said following the 7-4 vote.
“I think I would use the words of one of the chiefs that I had a conversation with which was, ‘Don’t lose the opportunity for education,’ and so the commitment I have, and the other councillors have, is to be sure we find a home for it that is respectful.” ....

Regina city council votes to put John A. Macdonald statue into storage


 
REGINA
Regina city council has decided to put remove the John A. Macdonald statue currently located in Victoria Park and put it in storage until a new location is found.
Council voted 7-4 to approve the move on Wednesday.
The move means the statue will be put in storage for a maximum of one year, and will be relocated to a location determined by council.
Until that decision is made, city administration is expected to consult with the public about the best location for the statue and any signage that is needed near it.
At the council meeting Wednesday, numerous delegates suggested the statue be put in a museum, moved behind the Legislative Building or moved to the RCMP Heritage Centre. It was also suggested the statue should have a plaque explaining the history of Macdonald, and his influence on confederation and Indigenous policies. ....

Regina city council votes to remove statue of Sir John A. Macdonald from park


Council spent nearly four hours Wednesday hearing from people for and against removing it from Victoria Park.
John Hopkins, chairman of Reconciliation Regina, told council the statue is offensive to many people, both Indigenous and non-Indigenous.
Trevor Lakness said he doesn’t have faith the city will put the statue in another location, pointing out that a statue of Metis leader Louis Riel has been in storage for many years.
Some people have suggested putting the statue in a museum, moving it behind the provincial legislature or to the RCMP Heritage Centre.
Others suggested the statue should stay put and have a plaque explaining the history of Macdonald and his influence on Confederation and Indigenous policies. ....
