WINNIPEG A Winnipeg city councillor is looking to rename a skatepark in the city to memorialize a man who helped design the park, and passed away following a tragic accident earlier this year. Coun. Scott Gillingham (St. James) said he is working with the family of Matt Jonsson to rename Skatepark West to the Matt Jonsson Memorial Skatepark. “Matt Jonsson had an impact on so many people in St. James, and renaming the park in his honour keeps his memory alive, and reminds us all of the power and impact that young people have,” Gillingham said. Jonsson, an avid BMX rider, passed away in February at the age of 24 following a freak accident. He was hanging out with friends in his basement when he jumped up and hit his head on a low-hanging ceiling, breaking his neck. He suffered brain damage and died soon after the accident.
