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.
