EDMONTON The statue of Emily Murphy in Edmonton has been cleaned after being covered in red paint and having the word “racist” painted over the plaque. The paint was discovered Monday at the statue of the namesake for Emily Murphy Park in Edmonton’s river valley. The park is located near Emily Murphy Park Road and Groat Road. “Vandalism solves nothing,” said Andre Corbould, the city manager, in a statement. “It destroys property, it destroys the hard work of the artist who created the monument or statue and it causes greater anger and frustration. “ Emily Murphy was the first woman magistrate in the British Empire and one of the Famous Five, a group of Alberta suffragists behind a landmark legal case in 1929.
