We apologize, but this video has failed to load.“It is important for us to learn from history, to learn from the injustice and the oppression of slavery,” Chow said to reporters after her swearing in on July 12.
It’s a twisted and warped view, but beyond the fact that council members voted to change the name based on shoddy claims, there are other reasons not to take the city down this path. What about Brant St., just west of Spadina Ave., and presumably named after Mohawk leader Joseph Brant. Unlike Jarvis and Dundas, many would know Brant’s name but not know that he was a slave owner.There are 10 other streets named after slave owners, according to the city, and a total of 60 streets the city has identified as being named after people “no longer considered to be reflective of the city’s contemporary values.
